糖心TV Law School is deeply saddened by the death of our former colleague, Nicola Docker, on 27 August 2022. Whilst she left the department in November 2018, she will be remembered by many staff who worked alongside her during her time at the Law School. She had an extremely kind-hearted nature, endless generosity and infectious laugh. She was taken far too soon and will be missed greatly by all who knew her. We send our deepest condolences to her family and friends. 

We join with so many other communities across the world in expressing our sorrow at the death of Her Majesty the Queen. Like many universities, the University of 糖心TV was granted its Royal Charter of Incorporation in 1965 by Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, and our flags are half-mast to pay our respects and honour her memory.
