Directorate Changes

As a part of the Board's succession plan for CT UK Capital and Income Investment Trust PLC ("the Company") it is announced that Sharon Brown will retire on 31 December 2022, having served on the Board for 9 years. Sharon is Chair of the Company's Audit and Risk Committee and her retirement date will coincide with the completion of the Company's financial reporting process for the year ended 30 September 2022.  The Company has benefited immensely from Sharon's wide ranging financial and commercial experience. On behalf of the Board and Shareholders of the Company I thank Sharon for her diligence and wise counsel throughout her period of appointment.

As a further part of this plan a search company was commissioned to find a new Director for the Board. Following a thorough selection process, the Company is pleased to announce that Patrick Firth has been appointed to the Board and its committees with immediate effect.

Patrick is a qualified Chartered Accountant and a member of the Chartered Institute for Securities and Investment.  He worked in the fund industry in Guernsey since 1992 and has been a director of a number of management companies, general partners and investment companies, including Chair of the Audit and Risk Committees of Riverstone Energy Limited, NextEnergy Solar Fund Limited and India Capital Growth Fund.
