There remain in place UK Government restrictions on larger gatherings as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Given these ongoing restrictions and the required social distancing measures, the Company's AGM will take place as a "closed meeting". The only attendees who will be permitted entry to the meeting will be those who will need to be present to form the quorum as set out in the Company's articles of association to allow the business to be conducted. Other shareholders, corporate representatives and proxies will not be able to attend the AGM and shareholders are therefore strongly encouraged to appoint the chairman of the meeting as their proxy. You can register to view the AGM via zoom webinar - please see the annual report for more details.
To be effective, all proxy appointments must be lodged with the Company's Registrars at: Computershare Investor Services PLC, The Pavilions, Bridgwater Road, Bristol BS99 6ZY by 25 January 2021 at 3.30 pm.
