12TH SEPTEMBER 2024
You're invited to the Easol Summer Social!
There’s been an almighty PUSH by you all - our formidable Easol Crew with some incredible achievements so far this year already and we’re only half way through!
So we wanted to take some time out to have fun and celebrate with you and your loved ones. Expect sports, silliness, healthy competition, good food and drinks and a party obvs.
Thank you for everything you give to Easol, we couldn’t be prouder to be on this journey with you all.
Let the games begin!

MORNING RUN
Join for an optional 3 or 5k run in Hackney! Led by our friends from the local run crew — Your Friendly Runners.
No running level is required, it will be at a ‘social pace’ to chat and get outside to kick off the day!
If running isn’t your thing, please feel free to meet us at the cafe to hang out and chat and support your team for a croissant and a coffee!
EASOLYMPICS
What started as our take on a team sports day, now has an official spot in our Easol Crew Summer calendar!
The Easolympics is a great chance for us all to get together outdoors for some sports-themed silliness and good times!
What to expect: There’ll be games, prizes, healthy competition, fresh air and hopefully some sunshine!
AFTER PARTY
There’s no Olympics without a closing party!
We would love to see you and your loved plus 1, for drinks, food, DJs and dancing later that evening! There will be lots of time between the two events to get home, freshen up from your sports kit into your ‘sunset glow’ for the party!
*A reminder for parents who need childcare, please put £100 onto your Pleo to cover the costs so you can both make it!

Thank you to our amazing Social Pod for launching the inaugural Easolympics in 2023 — we wanted to make sure that this year you could get involved and enjoy the day too!
And so our fabulous Easolympics 2024 team Alex and Ellie are on hand to answer any of your questions at alex@easol.com
You can wear anything comfortable / active that you will be happy to move in e.g. Leggings, shorts, sportswear, t-shirt, trainers (pack like you are going to the gym or for a Sunday afternoon dog walk!).
There will be some energy boosting snacks and drinks, however don’t forget there will be food later at Shoreditch House. But please eat your lunch beforehand as there won’t be a full lunch setup.
Please bring a reusable water bottle if you have one as we want to keep plastic to a minimum. There will be some back up water bottles if required, as we don’t want anyone getting dehydrated!
Yes of course! You will have time to shower, get ready and fully glam up if you choose to before we head out again. The Easolympics will finish at 4pm!
Everyone is welcome, you can cheer on the teams from the sidelines and chill in the park with everyone regardless. However the games won’t be too strenuous, so if you do want to be involved don't let the hint to the Olympics put you off 😊
Alex and Ellie are our summer social event squad this year! For any questions about the day, please email alex@easol.com.
