I (Tango) propose that we open an office in about June and start hiring staff. This will enable us to function much more professionally and efficiently. It comes to quite a large portion of our expected funds (although these are generous estimates), so we may need to be a little more frugal than I've budgeted for. Some of these costs will probably be allocated to various initiatives and we may be able to pay some of them out of grants and other income sources. One easy way to reduce the cost would be to delay implementation - I think we should be up and running at least a few weeks before the next fundraiser to enable that to run more smoothly and effectively, but it wouldn't hurt much to delay until September, say, which would reduce the cost by £3,000 or so. | I (Tango) propose that we open an office in about June and start hiring staff.

I (Tango) propose that we open an office in about June and start hiring staff. This will enable us to function much more professionally and efficiently. It comes to quite a large portion of our expected funds (although these are generous estimates), so we may need to be a little more frugal than I've budgeted for. Some of these costs will probably be allocated to various initiatives and we may be able to pay some of them out of grants and other income sources. One easy way to reduce the cost would be to delay implementation - I think we should be up and running at least a few weeks before the next fundraiser to enable that to run more smoothly and effectively, but it wouldn't hurt much to delay until September, say, which would reduce the cost by £3,000 or so.
