RNS Number : 2046Z  TheWorks.co.uk PLC  12 September 2025

TheWorks.co.uk plc

("The Works", the "Company" or the "Group")

Director/PDMR Shareholding

The Works, the retailer of affordable, screen-free activities for the whole
family, today announces that on 11 September 2025, the Company granted awards
over ordinary shares of 1 pence each in the Company under the TheWorks.co.uk
2018 Long Term Incentive Plan (each an "LTIP Award") as follows:

 Name of individual  Position / status        Type of award                 Number of shares subject to LTIP Award
 Gavin Peck          Chief Executive Officer  LTIP Award - nil cost option  992,818
 Rosie Fordham       Chief Financial Officer  LTIP Award - nil cost option  448,800

The awards are subject to stretching and equally weighted earnings and share
price performance conditions, in line with previous awards.

The awards are subject to an underpin condition in accordance with which the
Remuneration Committee may adjust the formulaic vesting outturn having regard
to the overall financial performance of the group over the performance period
ending FY28 and whether any value in the awards at assessment of the
performance condition represents a "windfall gain".

The awards will vest following the assessment of the performance conditions
(to the extent that the conditions have been satisfied) and then be subject to
a further two-year holding period.

The notifications below, made in accordance with the requirements of the UK
Market Abuse Regulation, provide further detail:
