Share Dealing Services, donations to charity and returns to shareholders During 2024, approximately £109,000 was donated to ShareGift, an option open to shareholders as part of the Share Dealing Service launched in 2017. The initiative is aimed at shareholders with relatively small shareholdings for whom it might otherwise be uneconomical to deal. The total donated since 2017in Share Dealing programs is over £445,000. In addition, as part of the Share Dealing Service,some shareholders opted to sell their holding, as is their right to. This resulted in £21.03m being returned to shareholders in 2024, with a total of £70.86m returned since 2017 via this service. Returning Shares Not Taken Up to shareholders In 2024, we have continued the tracing process to reunite over 60,000 shareholders who have not cashed their Shares Not Taken Up (SNTU) cheque following the Rights Issue in September 2013. In 2024 we returned over £78,000 to our shareholders via the tracing process.
