Board changes at VP

Vp, the UK based owner of telehandler company UK Forks, has announced changes in its board of directors.

Barrie Cottingham has retired as a non-executive director and chairman of the audit committee. As planned, Stephen Rogers who joined Vp as a non-executive director in October 2008, takes over as chairman of the audit committee.

Group chairman, Jeremy Pilkington, said: “Barrie's wise counsel has
been a great asset to Vp over a 13 year period in which the Group has
embraced significant change and successfully developed into the
equipment rental specialist that it is today. I would like to thank
Barrie on behalf of the Board, the employees and the shareholders for
his valued contribution to Vp and to wish him well on his
retirement.”
