1/04: END OF AN ERA OR A NEW BEGINNING!

A Pro-Cannabis demonstration is expected outside Crown Court on Friday 9th
January 2004 when Worthing Cannabis Cafe entrepreneurs appear for sentence.

Chris Baldwin, Winston Matthews and Mark Benson will appear at Chichester
Crown Court to be sentenced for their "crimes".

These so called crimes are all related to providing a cannabis cafe for the
benefit of the community in Worthing.

Sarah Chalk, Sussex Spokesperson for Legalise Cannabis Alliance said: "In
Worthing the whole community benefited, from charities to local business"
adding, "If there were cannabis cafes all over the UK, just think how the
whole country would benefit."

A message has already gone out via the internet calling for support from the
thousands who actually visited Quantum Leaf and Buddies in Worthing, to
travel a few miles and let people know what they think.

Sarah said: "These brave men should be recognised.

"We intend to have a peaceful demo outside the court On Friday 9th January
2004,

"I am expecting people as far away as Scotland to turn up to show support.
