Tributes are being paid to the co-founder of the ManSat Group who has passed away.
Bryan Stott was the first Chairman and, latterly, Chair of its Advisory Board.
In the late 1990s and early 2000s he worked with his son, Chris, to establish the space industry in the Isle of Man with the formation of ManSat.
Chris said: “In addition to his business life, Dad was a devoted family man and passionate about the Isle of Man and its community. He was a keen supporter of many charities, from Round Table to Rotary, to working as Chair of Isle of Man Anti-Cancer in its many campaigns, managing fundraising projects for Isle of Man Railways, serving with the Manx Museum during its expansion, serving with the Scouts, and supporting the Save the Children organisation and the London Royal College of Music. He also had a strong involvement in the establishment of Life Education Centres, the children's health education and drug prevention charity in the Island and in the UK.”
Bryan’s funeral takes place at 10.00am on Thursday, 1st September 2022 at St Anthony’s Church in Onchan.
