   MILESTONE GROUP PLC 
 
   ("Milestone" or the "Company") 
 
   Milestone formally launches the Passion Project 
 
   Milestone, the AIM quoted (AIM: MSG) provider of digital media and 
technology solutions is pleased to announce the formal launch of our 
flagship product, the Passion Project, at an event on 10th December 
2014. 
 
   The invitation-only event will be held at the Cass Business School for 
over 200 guests, the Project's Ambassadors and over 50 Founding Partners, 
including Big Invest, Ambition UK, NCVO, Be the Best 21st Century Legacy 
and Each One Teach One (EOTO). We are also expecting members of the 
press to be present. 
 
   The event will be co-hosted by Kevin Everett and Paul Elliott CBE of the 
Milestone Foundation, opened by Professor Paul Palmer and include a 
question and answer session with Ben Drew, aka Plan B. 
 
   The Passion Project is already generating significant interest and 
exposure. As previously announced, the company has recently begun to get 
on board fee paying Corporate members ahead of the launch. This is a key 
milestone in the product's development cycle highlighting the commercial 
viability of the Corporate offering, which helps underpin the social 
benefit of the initiative. 
 
   As announced on 2nd December 2014, the Rank Group Plc will provide in 
the region of 1,500 employment opportunities over the coming 12 months, 
with approx. 80 positions available from Rank alone from launch further 
demonstrating the programme's potential in terms of scale and reach. 
 
   Following the event, we will open up the programme to a wider range of 
potential corporate partners as we seek to drive the expansion of the 
project's membership base and employment opportunity offering whilst 
activating new revenue streams for the business. 
 
   Further announcements will follow in due course.
