AWARDEDMOST IMPROVEDRAG 2013
Hello, and welcome to the RAG mag.
We’re incredibly proud to introduce you to an amazing society, that host a huge range of activities to raise money for charity. Our growth has been incredible over the past year, raising in excess of one-hundred thousand pounds, and this year we hope to increase it even more. We are a society made up of individuals from all different backgrounds who all have the same common ground, to make a huge impact. We run all kinds of activities from cake sales to club nights, and pizza eating to climbing Mt Kilimanjaro; there is some-thing for everyone. Our membership is free, and we really want you to get involved and add something special to your university experience. We are
more than happy to help you with any fundraising that you would like to pursue, so please do not hesitate to get in touch.
welcomefrom the president & vice president

our charities Each year, in the Summer term you vote for which charities RAG supports. These are the nominated charities for 2013/14. All of RAGs funds will be split between these charities. Read about them here.
Plymouth RAG is supporting the Teenage Cancer Trust's South West Appeal is aiming to fund and build the region's first dedicated unit for 16-24 year olds with cancer. For the first time young people with cancer in the South West will be able to be treated together and have access to the very best specialist care and support that they need in an environment tailored to their needs.
RNLI provide, on call, a 24-hour lifeboat search and rescue service and a seasonal lifeguard service, the RNLI is independent of the government so depends on its volunteers and fundraising to carry out its lifesaving work. Plymouth RAG is supporting the lifeboat stations in and around our region, funding the purchase of equipment and maintenance of their equipment and lifeboats.
MacMillan provide practical, medical and financial support and push for better cancer care. Plymouth RAG will be supporting the Mustard Tree centre, which operates out of Derriford Hospital. The centre has been created for people with cancer, their families and careers. RAG will also be supporting the funding a MacMillan nurse that works locally in the area.
