budget

we have been allocated £3500 this year. gayle and I have discussed it and can't make it work!!!! so i have e-mailed GB to ask for another £500. we'll see if we get it or not. this is a draft based on the assumption that we will. i don't know what to do otherwise. there may be a few savings/corners we can cut?...

the basic deal is that we will try and offer any group doing one service £30 and two £50 - this really is a token gesture to help cover expenses. groups doing installations i have allocated £100 towards as they tend to involve greater expenditure. some bigger scale things we are chipping a bit more into... anyway the first stab looks like this

New forms 1 - 15 groups say about £750 plus van for visions to bring TVs etc (£100) plus meal vouchers/expenses (£150)
I think we need to treat contemplative in a similar way - say £500 for groups and £100 expenses
New forms 2 – 5 groups doing installations (£100 each plus £100 for venue) - £600

Then we have agreed with other areas of programme
Aradhna - £250
Paul Hobbs £200
Survivor £200

I‚d like to give Kubik and COTA a bit more than £50 as they are coming from US and Germany! Say £150 each? = £300

Trees round site £100
Stables installation - £100
Quakers - £0
Fransiscans £50
Worshipworks/wild goose £100
Flan £50
Deaf worship £50
Club £120 (4 slots)
Stage 2 £150 (5 slots)
Zoo - £0
Video for screen £0
Txt - £0
Catholic mass £30
L‚arche £50
Johnny Parkes £50

this all totals about £4000

communion is a separate budget
