The Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board (AHDB) has appointed Guy Attenborough to the position of interim head of communications with immediate effect.

Attenborough was previously head of communications for the Meat and Livestock Commission.

He will be temporarily based from AHDB offices in Nobel House, London, along with the other three members of the transition team, until AHDB moves to temporary offices at Stoneleigh in September this year.
