== Potential items ==
[[Category:Financial]]
=== Office Manager ===
Three possibilities that need to be costed and decided upon:
* Continuation at current level of 8 hours per week? 8x52x£10 = £4,160
* Increasing to ~20 hours per week? 20x52x£10 = £10,400.
* Full time position? ~£20k salary, ~£10k+ overheads.
 
=== Events Organiser ===
* Full time position? ~£20k salary, ~£10k+ overheads, plus individual project budgets?
 
=== Printing and distributing Bookshelf materials ===
Materials from the WMF's Bookshelf Project are starting to become available - see http://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/Bookshelf . They would likely need some minor alterations so that they are in British English, after which we could print and distribute copies. Other works could also be created and distributed via the same method.
 
Could distribute to:
* Libraries
* Schools
* Universities
* Museums
* At events like GLAM-WIKI, annual conference, etc.
 
Costs would be:
* Printing
* Postage
 
Rough estimate might be £1k(?).
 
=== Seed for membership merchandise ===
* Seed money for printing T-shirts etc.
* Can also be used as prizes in competitions, rewards for helping out at events, etc.
 
Rough estimate might be £200(?), with the aim of becoming largely self-sustaining.
 
=== Chapters Conference 2011 ===
We will need to fund the travel for 2 board members to attend this. Weekend of 25-26 March, in Berlin. Should cost ~£0.5K. Would also be good to provide sponsorship for other chapters, or general support for the conference (pending them meeting the requirements of our grant for the 2010 conference...). Perhaps budget £2k in total?
 
=== Wikimania 2011 Sponsorship ===
Scholarships for people to travel to Wikimania 2011 in Haifa, Israel? £1k?
 
=== Travel ===
Funding for board members and volunteers to travel to free content conferences and meetings with current and potential partners. Could also include accommodation and subsistance. £1k might be an underestimate (10 trips of £100 each), but might be a good starting point. This could do with knowing the amount spent in 2010 on this.
 
=== WIKI conference ===
Follow-up conference to [[GLAM-WIKI]], either on the same topic (GLAM) or on a different one (e.g. education). Budget for GLAM-WIKI 2010 is ~£5k, hence budgeting roughly the same next year.
