Date: Tuesday 17 Jun 2008

LONDON (ShareCast) - Lord Sheppard of Didgemere, non-executive chairman of human resources company OneClickHR, has lifted his stake in the company above 3% with the purchase of 250,000 shares.

Lord Sheppard, a Conservative peer, bought the shares for 4.35p each, paying a total of £10,875 which takes his stake to 4.5m shares.

The group's share price has appreciated since 22 May when he bought the same number of shares at 3.75p a go.
