Melvin Gwanzura
Melvin joined St Charles Catholic Sixth Form College in December 2001 where he taught Psychology and Sociology. He was appointed head of Psychology in 2007 and in 2020 became Head of Social Sciences and New staff Induction Manager. Melvin was first and foremost an educator in every sense of the word. He was passionate about learning and supporting students, not only to make the most of their potential but also, to develop and grow as individuals. He was fully committed to each and every one of his students. As a colleague, Melvin was thoughtful and kind as well as being a consummate professional. Over the years he acted as a friend and mentor to many staff and his recent work with staff, new to St. Charles helped him to share his awareness of the practical skills needed to be a good teacher with others in a formal manner. He worked as a Senior Examiner for both A level Psychology and Criminology. A talented Volleyball player he touched the lives of so many people, with his infectious smile and laughter. To say that Melvin will be missed by the entire St. Charles community, both past and present is an understatement. We were lucky to have him for so long which makes the loss so difficult but he leaves behind a legacy that will live on. Eternal rest, grant unto him oh Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May he rest in peace Amen With love and prayers for you all at this difficult time St Charles community

Vishna Rasiah
Dr Vishna Rasiah, beloved husband, father, brother, son and a well-respected and much-loved colleague at Birmingham Women’s and Children’s, has sadly passed away following treatment for COVID-19. Dr Rasiah, known to all his friends as Vish, was a Consultant Neonatologist at Birmingham Women’s Hospital and was highly-regarded across the Midlands as part of his role as Clinical Lead for the regional Neonatal network. Vish was a proud husband and father. His wife Liza said: “We’re devastated at losing our beloved Vish. He was such a loving husband and father to our beautiful daughter Katelyn, and much loved son and brother to our family in Malaysia and Trinidad. His whole family meant the world to him, and he absolutely doted on Katelyn. Vish loved his work; to him it was so much more than a job and his colleagues are part of our family too. He treated every patient and family he cared for as his own; I couldn’t have been prouder of him. I would like to thank the staff at Worcestershire Royal Hospital for the kindness, compassion and the care that they have provided to us over an incredibly difficult past few weeks.”
