PP3 is a mobile communications unit set up to provide communications for Road Protests. It is run from a 1963 Morris ambulance. We try to position ourselves in between where the action is and the campaign office, in order to relay information and be on hand to repair equipment. Equipment in the ambulance consists of CB and wire intercom with a mobile phone we can borrow as back up. We are trying to upgrade to sending emails. PP3 is under the protection of the Department Of Trollheim and is an integral part of the Troll posse providing support and coffee for all Trolls and anyone needing revitalising as PP3 is usually the warmest place on site.

Our aim is to offer support which would not otherwise be available and assist with safety eg providing intercoms for tunnels. PP3 is powered from a Rutland 910 wind turbine and chronar solar panels. We have a hand cranked generator as back up. The photocopier is powered from a petrol{unleaded}generator, also used as a back up for charging batteries. We have the ability to make recordings of events which is extremely useful as evidence. We also have equipment to record and edit video footage, check out the Troll video:- out soon.

Our intention is to raise awareness of the destruction we humans are inflicting on planet earth. It's very difficult to get people to listen which is why we take drastic measures to make people listen. We believe passionately in non-violence and think very carefully about any action we take and the effect it will have on the cause. To date we feel we have achieved a lot by adopting this approach.

We have very little money and rely on donations to keep going.
