North Walworth Mutual Aid Expense Policy:

Expenses will include but are not limited to:

Food, medication or essential items purchased by volunteers for those in need Overhead costs associated with running the mutual aid group (e.g. printing)

Food

Where possible, we will provide food parcels/meals to those experiencing financial difficulty through collaborations with local organisation Pembroke House and local restaurant Louie Louie. However, should we recognise an urgent need or particular dietary requirements for a member of our community, we will purchase groceries as necessary.

Medication

Where a recipient is unable to reimburse the volunteer for medication collected, we will assist with an application for an NHS exemption certificate. In the meantime, or should this be unsuccessful, we will purchase medication as necessary.

Essential items

Where a recipient is under financial difficulty, we will provide essential items including hygiene products.

Reimbursement

Please email northwalworthmutualaid@outlook.com with any queries or issues regarding expenses.

You must upload a valid receipt or invoice clearly showing the total amount, date, legal address, and what the payment is for.

The Open Collective accountant works Monday, Wednesday and Thursday so please note this is when bank transfers will be made.

Due to the fees associated with Paypal, please select to be reimbursed via Bank Transfer. We will only be able to authorise repayments via Paypal in exceptional circumstances.
