I represented the Association on the Veterinary Services Advisory Committee of the British Veterinary Association. I act as veterinary advisor to major animal insurers, having been instrumental in initiating both the BEVA/Equine Insurers Liaison Committee and more recently the Committee of Veterinary Advisors to Equine Insurance Companies. I am a member of the RCVS panel for vets inspecting riding establishments, and also carry out local authority inspections of boarding and breeding kennels etc. I serve on the committee of the Veterinary Association for Arbitration and Jurisprudence. I am a Fellow of the Royal Society of Medicine and a referee for the Joint Measurement Scheme. I am recognised as an Official Veterinarian for all the major species by DEFRA.
