Shropshire County Show chairman quits

The man behind the revamped Shropshire County Show has resigned from his position with immediate effect, it was revealed today.

Roy Dodd has quit his role as chairman, director and trustee of The Shropshire & West Midlands Agricultural Society – the organisation which runs the annual event at the showground in Berwick Road, Shrewsbury.

Mary Hopkins, general manager, said: “The Trustees of the Society would like to thank Mr Dodd for the work and dedication he has given over the last year, particularly with regard to the CVA negotiations which have enabled the Society to continue.”

No details have yet been given as to the reason for Mr Dodd’s decision to leave.
