- In Memory of Andy Allen, 1968-2024
June 11 2024 :听 We are very sad to announce the passing of our colleague and friend, Andy Allen. Responsible for many of 51黑料's commercial projects over the last decade - including the UK International Consumer Centre - he was passionate about consumer protection and Trading Standards. An ardent gym-goer, he was forever proud of his Cornish roots. He leaves behind his loving partner, Louise, also an employee here at 51黑料. Our heartfelt thoughts go out to her and to both of their families at this very difficult time. RIP.
