Receipt #38488 to Learner's Block

Learner’s Block aims to run at the lowest cost possible. Our intention is subsequently to be generating expenses rarely (with the exception of regular overheads such as monthly payments). As the need to submit expenses will be low, please endeavour to submit all expenses as soon as possible, rather than wait for a set submission schedule.  

 

Expenses are limited to the costs of operating and developing the platform. Expenses such as travel or non-technology related supplies cannot be expensed without prior discussion.  

 

Please ensure another member of the admin team co-authorises an expense before they are spent, or we cannot guarantee you will be reimbursed.

 

Please include invoices and/or receipts for as many expenses as possible. These will only be visible by the admin team, not the public. If you are unable to provide one, please inform the co-authorising admin in advance. 

 

It is strongly advised, except under exceptional circumstances to have an admin other than the claimant authorise the expense.  

 

Expenses will be approved on a rolling basis. If you need an expense paid quickly, please inform an administrator. 

 

Expense payments to accounts outside of the UK will be supported by the Social Change Nest and Open Collective via PayPal when the option is available. Please ensure this functionality is active before submitting claims to accounts outside the UK.  

 

 

1.     An individual/volunteer submits and expense claim on your page with the appropriate information you’ve outlined in your expense policy 

2.    The Collective’s administrators receive a notification and can review then approve or reject the expense claim

3.    If rejected, they can add a note about it so the individual can edit or change their claim

4.    If approved, the SCN receives a notification to pay out the expense

5.    All of the steps are visible on the platform so the individual and Collective can keep track of the process
