                            CHAIRMAN RECOGNISED BY NATIONAL BUSINESS AWARDS

The  Board  of  ANS Group, a leading IT and Telecoms solution provider, is delighted to announce  that
Scott  Fletcher, the Group's Chairman and Founder, received 'The Credit Suisse North West Entrepreneur
of the Year' award at the National Business Awards, North West and North East Regional Finals.

The  National  Business  Awards, described by the Prime Minister as the  'Business  Oscars',  attracts
entries  from a wide variety of successful organizations, including National Westminster  Bank,  Royal
Bank of Scotland and Sheffield United Football Club.

Scott's  hard  work in propelling ANS Group's growth, which saw the group's turnover rise  by  59%  to
approximately  GBP  10m  in  2007/08,  and most recently be awarded  Cisco  Gold  partner  status,  an
accreditation bestowed on only 28 companies in the UK, played a big part in his success at the awards.

Scott  will now go on to represent the region as a finalist for the Credit Suisse Entrepreneur of  the
Year Award in London.

Commenting  on  his  award,  Scott Fletcher said: "It is a great honour to go  through  this  rigorous
process  and  come out a winner in a competition that is cross sector with entrants not restricted  by
age  or  size of business.  The quality of the entrepreneurs and businesses in the final  were  of  an
excellent standard and it goes to show what an outstanding award this is to win."

               The directors of the issuer accept responsibility for this announcement.
