Inland Homes plc
("Inland Homes" or the "Company")
Appointment of Non-Executive Director
Inland Homes plc (AIM: INL), the housebuilder, partnership housing developer and regeneration specialist focused on the South and South East of England, is pleased to announce the appointment of Trevor Sawyer as an independent non-executive director of the Company with immediate effect.
Trevor Sawyer has had an extensive career working in the housing development industry, previously as a Managing Director of Barratt Homes Southern Counties and a non-executive director of Orbit Homes.
This appointment comes following despatch to shareholders of the Company's notice of Annual General Meeting, at which appointments to fill casual vacancies are required to be approved by shareholders. Accordingly, as this cannot occur in this instance, the board has resolved to re-appoint Trevor Sawyer immediately following the Annual General Meeting and will propose a resolution to approve his appointment at a further General Meeting which will be called to approve the Company's accounts when they are ready.
Over recent days, Inland Homes has been focused on ensuring that the Board comprises a majority of independent non-executive directors to improve Board governance. With Trevor's appointment, this has been achieved. With the appointment of independent directors to the Board, Stephen Wicks will not be joining the Board but will continue in his role as a consultant to the Group.
