Funding and Finance We began the project with funding for one year amounting to £9,000 which consisted of a grant from Bristol Archdeaconry Charity of £5,000 and £4,000 from St Mary Redcliffe Church PCC. Our initial outlay was to buy a laptop for the Education Officer at a cost of £732.00. We have also spent a small amount of money on resources for the workshops but our set up costs are still under £800. Having researched what other organisations in Bristol are charging for school visits we decided to make a small charge of about £1.50-£2.00 per pupil to schools who attend workshops or tours with a talk or other input. If schools visit and have no input or minimal input from us, we do not charge. Our policy is not to charge St Mary Redcliffe Primary or St Mary Redcliffe and Temple Schools. Our income for the first six months of the project was almost £500 whereas our expenditure on resources for the workshops has been well under £100. We now seek funding to continue the project into a second year. The cost of resources and travel can easily be covered by the income from the workshops. As long as the PCC remains committed to giving funding towards the salary, there is no reason why the project cannot continue and develop. Additional funding would enable us to increase the number of workshops taking place. Year 3 pupils at a workshop about Noah’s Ark using a story as a starting point and then the Noah’s Ark window. 6
