HC Slingsby plc ('Slingsby' or the 'Company')


Delisting from the Official List and transfer to AIM


The Board of Slingsby announces that it has applied to the UK Listing Authority
for the listing of its ordinary shares on the Official List to be cancelled,
with effect from 8.00 am on 24 May 2005.

The Board is also applying to London Stock Exchange plc for its ordinary shares
to be admitted to trading on the Alternative Investment Market ('AIM').  It is
expected that admission to AIM will be effective from 8.00 am on 24 May 2005.

The Board believes that AIM is a more appropriate market for a company of
Slingsby's size.  Being on AIM will also enable the Company to react more
quickly should any acquisition or other development opportunities arise.

Williams de Broe Plc has agreed to act as nominated adviser and broker to the
Company.
