                                  HandMade Plc
                         ("Handmade" or "the Company")

                    Suspension of Shares from Trading on AIM

29 JUNE, 2007. LONDON, UK: HandMade plc, the international rights and film
company announces today that, whilst management are very pleased with current
trading, a delay in the publication of the 2006 report and accounts has arisen
from the need for the Company's intangible assets, including its film and Eloise
character rights, to be independently valued by a specialist media valuation
firm prior to audit sign off.

As a result the Company's annual accounts for the year ended 31 December 2006
can not yet be finalised and will therefore not be published on or before 30
June 2007. Accordingly, the Company confirms that it will not be able to comply
with Rule 19 of the AIM Rules requiring an AIM Company to send its annual
accounts to shareholders not later than six months after the end of the
financial year to which they relate and as a result will be immediately
suspended from trading on AIM.

The Directors anticipate that the audited report and accounts will be published
by the middle of July at which point the Company's shares will begin trading on
AIM again.
