This is a list of expenses incurred by the Chief Executive and trustees during the financial year 2014-15. Expenses are listed quarterly by date of reimbursement by the charity, which may not be in the same quarter that the expense was incurred.

These tables are not a reliable means of judging trustees in and of themselves. Some trustees will inevitably have to claim more travelling expenses than others because of where they live, or because of their need to travel to the office more often. Sometimes a trustee will pay on a personal credit card for other trustees and/or volunteers (for example for a meal), and that would show as an unusually large expense claim. Claims relating to a specific event will not all necessarily fall into the same quarter. Some trustees may claim reimbursement promptly while the claims of others may fall into a later quarter.

Quarter One

In addition to smaller expenses, Q1 covers two key events: the Governance Workshop in London and the Wikimedia Conference in Berlin.
