There are several ways to submit voting instructions before the meeting, which are set out in the Chair's letter in the Notice of 2023 AGM.  

The Notice of 2023 AGM, together with explanatory notes on the resolutions to be proposed and instructions on voting and how to view the AGM online and submit questions, is contained in the circular sent or made available to shareholders today.

NET ZERO CARBON PATHWAY REPORT

Harworth is also publishing today its first Net Zero Carbon Pathway Report. In 2022, Harworth committed to becoming operationally Net Zero Carbon by 2030 and Net Zero Carbon for all emissions by 2040. This aligns with the decarbonisation targets of the UK Government and ensures that its approach and interim targets are consistent with a 1.5 degrees climate change scenario.

Today's report outlines for the first time the steps that Harworth will take to address the challenges and opportunities that decarbonisation brings. It provides clear and practical guidance for the business, and a framework through which its progress can be measured.

The report is available to download at www.harworthgroup.com/sustainability.
