In memory of a very special colleague and someone who was genuinely interested in, and supportive of, everyone. Will always remember the cheeky phone calls at work when he tried to catch me out! xx

In loving memory of Simon.

Sending love, to lovely human

Thank you for being my Twitter friend, Always kind and willing to help

Willsy Fly high my friend, you have from Twitter, I will never forget your kindness in helping me with my family history

In a close knit pharmacy community paths cross from time to time and Simon always had time and a kind word for everyone he came in contact with. For Dave Simon was an ideal pHD student needing only to be kept on track to finish the writing up! A life cut short too soon.

Over the many years I worked with Simon he always focused on delivering the best service possible for patients. He never settled for second best and we all benefited from his drive and enthusiasm.

For Simon -rest in peace

Simon was an amazing person and the world was a better place with him in it. I will miss him lots. An amazing friend, colleague and boss. With his work, Simon was so passionate, enthusiastic, creative and innovative and was a great leader. He taught me lots.
Simon was great fun with his pranks and jokes with lots of great memories. Simon was a caring warm and friendly person. Thank you Simon and RIP. All my thoughts are with Jon and the rest of his family.

On behalf of UK Medicines Information I would like to express our shock and sadness about the untimely loss of Simon. Simon was a key member of UKMi until his retirement from the NHS in 2021. He was generous, thoughtful and always forward-looking and innovative. He led many national developments including our national training programme, setting standards for patient helplines and establishing online frequently asked questions about medicines. All of these remain critical to delivery of Medicines Information today. His interest in writing and publishing was apparent throughout his career, and it is no surprise he continued this in his other numerous areas of interest. He was well-respected across our profession and he was much missed when he decided to move away from pharmacy. We send our condolences to his family.
