Expense policies
Expenses Policy for The Community Councillor Collective 
The Community Councillor Collective is developed and run by councillors themselves. As councillors, we all volunteer a great deal of our time with little to no payment. This lack of compensation is one reason why councillors are not as diverse as they could be. It is therefore important that all councillors' time and professional skills are properly acknowledged through expenses for their work with the Community Councillor Collective. As elected representatives, transparency is also particularly important—individual names of councillors must be shown publicly alongside their expenses. 
Running costs of the network will be expensed, including community management and development fees, at a standard professional day rate (to be agreed). 
For in-person events (including speaking engagements and workshops), all councillors can claim a participation day rate (to be agreed), plus travel and food expenses. Travel requires receipts, with a flat rate of £15 a day available for food. Train travel is preferred. 
Expenses will be approved within 48 hours (during the working week) of receipt. For questions or queries, email Fiona.
