ProCook Group plc ("ProCook" or "the Group"), the UK's leading
direct-to-consumer specialist kitchenware brand, announces that Luke
Kingsnorth has informed the Board of his intention to step down as a
Non-Executive Director of the Group and Chair of the Remuneration Committee,
to focus on other professional commitments, with effect from 25 June 2024. The
Board is pleased to announce that Meg Lustman will be appointed a
Non-Executive Director on the same date and will assume the role of Chair of
the Remuneration Committee, and member of the Nomination Committee and the
Audit and Risk Committee.

Meg has over 35 years of retail experience, and was previously CEO of British
affordable luxury brand, Hobbs. Prior to this, she held senior positions at
many of the UK's leading fashion retailers including John Lewis, Warehouse,
and Aurora/Mosaic Fashions.

Meg is currently a non-executive director of N Brown Group plc and Chair of
its Remuneration Committee and interim Chair of the Nominations and Governance
Committee.  She also serves as Vice Chair of Court and Chair of the
Remuneration Committee at Glasgow Caledonian University and is Chair of St
Luke's Hospice (Harrow and Brent).

Greg Hodder, Chair, commented:

"We are delighted to welcome Meg to the ProCook Board, as she brings a wealth
of retail experience, having led the UK and international growth of some of
the UK's best-known retailers. This will be invaluable to the business as we
continue to build on the growing momentum in our performance."

"In addition, I would like to thank Luke for the consistently high quality of
his contribution to the Board during his time with us, since our IPO."
