Volunteer equipment

Amount: £2,000
Budget responsibility: Chief Executive
Primary contact: Chief Executive

This provides equipment that volunteers and visitors can use when visiting the office or attending events. A good example would be spare laptops for training events, or a mobile wi-fi hub.

Below are some suggestions for consideration.

Item Price Comments
Canon EOS 60D (with 18-55mm kit lens) £703.47 DSLR, shoots 1080p HD video http://www.amazon.co.uk/Canon-Digital-Camera-including-3-5-5-6/dp/B005C3C9EU
Røde VideoMic £69.35 http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/offer-listing/B0007U9SOC/ref=asc_df_B0007U9SOC10963028?ie=UTF8&condition=new
Camera bag £18.99 Delay purchase until after camera has been bought http://www.amazon.co.uk/Koolertron-Waterproof-Camera-Digital-Casual/dp/B006OX9DKK (something cheaper could probably be picked up second hand)
FAVI RioHD-LED-2 Mini Projector £175.57 Cheap portable projector of use in all sorts of training scenarios. See here

Please feel free to add your own suggestions for volunteer equipment. The sooner we buy the equipment the more value we will get out of it.

NB Stuff that we already have available from the office includes:

  • Three Laptops for training events
  • Lapel badges and stickers
  • T Shirts for trainers - if you regularly do Wikimedia Outreach/Training in the UK we have a Polo Shirt that we'd love you to wear while doing this.
  • Event banners - stand alone banners that are good for turning a plain stall at a frshers fair into something a bit more whizzy
  • Assorted literature
