Project scope
This project provides start up funding for Wikimedia UK so that we can kick-start a number of projects we would like to work on. Because the income from this grant takes us over the £5,000 level it also allows us to register with the UK Charity Commission - which helps us to book cheaper rooms and gain various tax benefits associated with charitable recognition sooner than would be otherwise possible.
The funding allows us to use the money in the following projects:
- asdas
- ...
Project goal
Non-financial requirements
Fit to strategy
Other benefits
Measures of success
Footnotes
- ↑ All amounts converted from GBP at 1.63 to protect against adverse exchange movements of 10% from 1.48 rate as at 20 April
