This is a live document that will be updated as and when our actions change and our community grows.
What can I invoice for?
Expenses will be distributed under three strands: mutual aid, events, and overhead.
Please expense for mutual aid if:
- You have lost work as a consequence of taking action with FFB. This includes withdrawing or declining paid events. Please expense a maximum of £50 per opportunity lost
- You are a book worker organising with FFB and require monetary support for any reason. We will provide a maximum of £50 to organisers with no questions asked
Please expense for the following events-related fees:
- A speaker fee of up to £50 per opportunity
- Accessibility costs, such as BSL and captions
- Venue costs
- Tech costs, such as costs associated with live streaming
- Please note that at this stage we are unable to cover travel expenses related to events, though hope to be able to do this in the future
Please expense for the following overhead costs:
- Website hosting
- Strategy day materials, such as stationary
- Printing, such as stickers and leaflets
- Transportation costs under £20, such as bus fare to attend a strategy day
- Venue costs
- Basic food and drink
What do I need to submit?
For the payment to be accepted you must submit an expense claim with a title of either: mutual aid, events, or overhead. When relevant, such as for reimbursement for materials and venue hires, please include a receipt.
When will I receive the money?
Expenses must be approved by the Collective’s admin. Collective admins will review payments no later than 28 days after the submission of the expense claim. Expenses are paid on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
Why was my expense rejected?
In most cases, expenses are rejected if the amount asked for surpasses the maximum we can offer per claim. If this is the case, an admin will contact you to amend your claim.
Who contributes to this fund?
- Individual donations from the community
- A percentage of sales through our affiliate bookshop.org page.
If you have any questions, would like to offer spaces or resources in kind, or seek further assistance please contact us at [email protected] with ‘Open Collective’ in the subject.
