Last post before Christmas

Wishing all of our followers and readers a happy Christmas. I hope that Christmas and the New Year bring the things you are looking for.

The charity has certainly reached a good point in its development. We now have agreed "objects" with HMRC, we have organised a few fundraising activities in 2008 to get the ball rolling, and we have developed a programme of events for 2009.

Main events for early 2009 include a 2-day bucket collection at Waitrose, a charity acoustic night at Devonport Playhouse, and the Dartmoor Jailbreak...

The acoustic night features 5 local artists: Sam Ho, Josie Newton, Jenny Keegan, Katie Marie and Steve Osman. See www.myspace.com/plymouthplease. Tickets for the event are currently on sale at £5 : e-mail admin@pl-ease.org.uk to order some! This event will be held on March 28th - our 1st birthday! Help us celebrate in style and reach our aim to become registered in 2009!

Plans for the jailbreak are still being made. We are looking for team members if anyone wants to join us. Not sure where we will end up yet...it's all part of the fun!

Anyway, thank you all for your support to date. Have a great Christmas!

Santa Run


In preparation for Christmas, 300+ wannerbie Santas completed the Santa Run around Saltram on Sunday 14th of December.


The event was organised by Plymouth Coasters to raise money for their chosen charity for 2008 - the Daisy Garland charity (http://www.thedaisygarland.org.uk/)


By some stroke of luck, the weather took a turn for the better, and glorious sunshine and a crisp morning made the 5km trip somewhat pleasurable!


Plymouth Coasters running club (http://www.dmlrunningclub.co.uk/) have chosen PL-ease as their charity for 2009. We look forward to working with them to help raise funds and the profile of our charity.
