                               Hitchens Group Plc
                                        
                          ('Hitchens' or 'the Company')
                                        
                      Proposed 1 for 10 Share Consolidation
                                        

Further to the admission of the Company's share capital to trading on AIM on
14th August 2007, the Board is pleased to announce its decision to carry out a
share consolidation broadly in line with the intended three month timeframe
suggested in the Admission Document.

The Company confirms that a circular has today been posted to shareholders in
order to seek their approval for a share  consolidation, whereby every 10
ordinary shares of 0.075p each will be consolidated into one new ordinary share
of  0.75p ("Consolidated Ordinary Shares").  The Directors believe that the
proposed consolidation is necessary in order to  improve the marketability of
the shares.

The Board has today applied for a further 4 ordinary shares of 0.075p each
("Ordinary Shares") to be admitted to  trading on AIM to ensure that the
Company's issued share capital is divisible by 10 for the consolidation. 
Admission  of the Ordinary Shares is expected to take place on 11 December 2007,
following which the Company will have  1,244,666,710 ordinary shares in issue.

The Company confirms the planned timetable for the proposed consolidation is as 
follows:

EGM to approve, inter alia, share consolidation       10.00am on 21 December 2007
                                                                            
Share consolidation record date                       5.00pm on 21 December 2007

Consolidated Ordinary Shares of 0.75p each            24 December 2007
