STEWARDSHIP

A new chairperson is being recruited by the Campaign for Responsible Rodenticide Use (CRRU) to take up the role early next year on retirement of Dr Alan Buckle, chairman since CRRU’s inception in 2004.

CRRU’s ultimate objective is to reduce the incidence of rodenticide residues in barns owls, the formally adopted sentinel species for all non-target wildlife.

Since 2016, CRRU has operated the UK Rodenticide Stewardship Regime, reporting to an HSE-led government oversight panel.

A role description is available at thinkwildlife.org/chair with details of all CRRU activities on the same site.

Freestyle applications including CV should be sent to [email protected] by midday Friday 15 December.
