Mr Alan Moss FAAPT
It is with great sadness that the Association announces the death of Mr Alan Moss after a short illness
Alan was a founding member of the Association and the first Chairperson; he was fundamental in the consultations between the Chief Scientific Adviser for the DOH and the Chair of the Guild of Anatomical Pathology Technicians to allow the dissolution of the Guild and the formation of the Association back in 2002.
Alan was awarded Honorary Fellow at the 20 years celebration event in 2022.
The Association would like to pass their condolences onto Alan’s family at this difficult time
