The British Horse Society promotes Henry Whittaker
Henry Whittaker has been appointed Senior Executive in The
British Horse Society's Access and Rights of Way Department.
Henry, who is a Bachelor of Law and has a post-graduate Master
of Science, joined the Society almost two years ago as an
Assistant Access and Rights of Way Officer and, after the
2005 reorganisation, was an Executive in the Access and Rights
of Way Department.
Director of Access, Safety and Welfare Mark Weston said:
"I am delighted that Henry has achieved this promotion.
He is a hard-working and gifted member of the team. I have
every confidence in him making a success of his new challenge."
Henry, 25, said he was "born in the saddle", having
had his first riding lessons as a baby, and went on to show
hunters at all levels, training with Lars Sederholm from the
age of 13.
He said: "I grew up in the equestrian world and understand
how vital the fight for better access and rights of way is
for riders and drivers. My father is a rural rights of way
contractor and I learnt a great deal from him about the practical
right of way before I even started at the BHS.
"My priorities are to make the Access and Rights of
Way Department more transparent and open and really promote
what we are constantly striving to achieve."
