Board change

Allergy Therapeutics (AIM:AGY), the fully integrated specialty pharmaceutical company specialising in allergy vaccines, announces that Ian Postlethwaite, Finance Director, has resigned from the Company to pursue a new opportunity.

The Board has commenced a search for his successor and a further announcement will be made in due course.
