My friend Roger Kojan, who has died of pancreatic cancer aged 75, was an economic development officer with Wakefield council, in West Yorkshire, and an advocate for social change and sustainability in the workplace and the wider community.
He liked to be practical, helping to set up a claimants’ union or working in the creche at a feminist event. Alternative ideas also informed his personal life, which included stints of communal living during his student years.
