The Mounted Police, formed in 1760, is the oldest part of the Metropolitan Police, but duties and training have changed enormously in 250 years.
Our speaker, Inspector Danny Butler of the Hammersmith Division, has experience in many aspects of what is involved in making sure these wonderful horses help to keep our borough safe. From training at Imber Court to deployment of the animals on active duty, Inspector Butler has plenty of tales to tell and will be very happy to answer your questions. He has also worked as part of the Notting Hill team, so knows Holland Park well and confirms that both horses and police love their rides through our park.
