With great sadness, Assura plc announces that Graham Roberts,
its former Chief Executive Officer, passed away last Friday, having

FTSE 250 company valued at around GBP900m. He had a clear vision,
inspired investor confidence and built a strong team, all of which
transformed Assura into a leading player in the sector.
