Trinity  Mirror  plc  ('Trinity Mirror') today announces  that  John  Allwood,
Deputy  Chief  Executive and Chief Operating Officer will be  leaving  Trinity
Mirror at the end of July.

John  was Finance Director and then Chief Executive of Mirror Group until  its
merger with Trinity plc in September 1999 when he took up his current role.

John  Allwood  commented: 'I have thoroughly enjoyed my 8  years  with  Mirror
Group  and  latterly Trinity Mirror but I feel it is now the appropriate  time
for  me  to move on and follow a new career direction.   I am pleased to  have
been  part  of the team that turned Mirror Group around and brought  it  to  a
position  where  it was a suitable partner for merger with Trinity.    Trinity
Mirror  is  a  superb  media  business and I wish it  and  all  my  colleagues
throughout  the  Group  every best wish as the Group  goes  from  strength  to
strength.'

Philip Graf, Chief Executive of Trinity Mirror, said:  'John's contribution to
the  success of Trinity Mirror, and in particular the integration of  the  two
businesses, has been very significant.'

Sir  Victor  Blank, Chairman of Trinity Mirror and former Chairman  of  Mirror
Group said: 'John played a very important role in both the Mirror Group and at
Trinity  Mirror  at critical times in their development.  We  wish  him  every
success for the future.'
