Trustee of the Japan House London Trust, Roger Gifford, sadly passes
It is with great sadness that we announce that Sir Roger Gifford, a Trustee of the Japan House London Trust, died at his home on Tuesday, 25 May.
Sir Roger contributed immensely to the development of Japan House. He was an original member of the Steering Committee which advised on the establishment and opening of Japan House. Also, as a board member of the Japan House London Trust, he was closely involved in setting the future direction of Japan House.
Sir Roger was a former Lord Mayor of the City of London, a respected banker and champion of green finance.
Our deepest sympathies and thoughts go to his family at this time.
