Message from Robert:
“I am very proud to be a patron of Heart Research UK – their determined focus on pioneering research into the understanding and treatment of cardiovascular disease, and their drive to improve the heart health of the UK is inspiring.
Someone dies of heart diseases every 5 minutes in the UK – I have very sadly seen too many friends and family fall victim over the years.”

All My Keyboards: Roger O'Donnell
Introducing a brand new written series: All My Keyboards, thought up by our friend, musician, composer and keyboardist of The Cure, Roger O'Donnell.
In this series we highlight the stories behind... well, you guessed it, a musician's keyboard collection! And who better to start us off than the creator of the series. As a member of The Cure since 1987, Roger has been instrumental in shaping the band's unique sound and style. He has previously been a member of a number of iconic bands, like The Psychedelic Furs, Thompson Twins and Berlin in addition to having an active solo career as a composer.
