BDS Chair Standing Down in May

16 March, 2021

The Chairman of The British Deer Society, Professor Rory Putman, has informed the Board of Trustees that he intends to stand down in May.

Professor Putman became a member of the Society in 1976. Throughout his 45 years, Rory has worked tirelessly to support the work of the BDS and has been a tremendous advocate for the management and wellbeing of deer. His decision not to stand for re-election and to stand down as a Trustee will be a huge loss for the Society.

We would like to thank Rory for his contribution and support to the work of the Society over many years.
