Simon Miller, Chairman, said: "It has been a privilege to be
part of Brewin Dolphin for over 15 years and to serve as Chairman
for the last eight. Toby will be joining an excellent team, and I
wish him, the Board and the business all continued success."

welcome Toby to Brewin Dolphin and look forward to working with
him. He brings a wealth of commercial and financial services and
experience, which will add to the Board's broader expertise.

past years. On behalf of all the Board, I want to thank him for his
guidance and for his leadership of the firm's continued evolution
and development."
Toby Strauss said: "I am very much looking forward to returning
to the world of private clients, to joining my new colleagues at
Brewin Dolphin, and to supporting them in achieving long-term
success for the Company and in creating shareholder value."
