Yes, you can do this by setting up a dividend mandate or payment instruction. This means that your cheque cannot get lost in the post and you will not have to wait for the cheque to clear once deposited in your bank account. Once you have set up a dividend mandate, future dividends will be paid directly into your account and the cleared funds will be available to you on the dividend payment date.

To arrange this download a dividend mandate form by registering with Equiniti, the Company Registrar, at www.shareview.co.uk. Alternatively, please contact Equiniti directly using the details provided above.
