Interim Results for the six months ended 31 July 2002


Chairman's Statement

I am pleased to report the Interim results for the six months ended 31 July 2002 
which show an unaudited profit before taxation of #178,000 (#197,000, 2001) on a 
turnover of #5,434,000 (#3,430,000) to produce earnings per share of
1.19p v 2.69p.

At 31 July 2002 the Company's net assets stood at #3,000,000 compared to 
#771,000 at 31 July 2001, equivalent to 25 pence per share for 2002, (13 pence).

The reduction in profitability in the six months to 31 July 2002 was due to the 
delayed start to the major new contract we have won with Camden Borough Council. 
For the year as a whole your board are optimistic that your Company will show
further growth in both turnover and profitability.

Current Trading

We committed substantial resources during the first half of 2002 to ensure the 
new contract with Camden Borough Council started successfully. We expect this 
contract to generate turnover of #2,000,000 per annum when it is fully
operational.

The Company's existing core business has continued to develop satisfactorily and 
to meet this growth we have opened a new Reading branch, which is meeting 
expectations.

New operational management and IT structures have also been introduced during 
the period to reflect the rapid expansion of the Company and strengthen our 
operational management systems.

Future Prospects

During the first half-year we have succeeded in winning new contracts with an 
annual turnover of #750,000. Further partnering initiatives are currently being 
explored, which we anticipate will lead to further opportunities to expand
the Company and contribute to higher profitability in future years.
