Paying tribute to our dear friend, Richard Skipper

We were deeply saddened to hear the news that our dear friend and colleague Richard Skipper passed away last Friday after a short battle with pancreatic cancer.

Joining us in 2009, Rich enjoyed a successful career with Investigo and was integral in shaping our business and our culture into what you see today. He was known across the business as one of the kindest, most genuine and caring people you could ever meet – someone who embodied everything that’s good not just in our business, but in people.

It’s incredibly rare to meet someone who’ll happily go out of their way for you and expect nothing in return. Rich was always available to give a word of advice, make a kind gesture or put a smile on your face with his wry sense of humour. He’ll be remembered as a legend of our business and although he’ll be sorely missed, we all feel so incredibly lucky to have had Skip as a friend and colleague. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family at this incredibly difficult time.

Rich’s family have set up a fundraising page in his memory with all the proceeds going to Martlets Hospice, who went above and beyond to support him during the final week of his life. If you’d like to make a donation, please visit their JustGivingpage.
