The Community Pot Expenses Policy
This document outlines the process and parameters for how the collective fund of £7500 will be used amongst the Nourishing Economics community. The Nourishing Economics Programme is a year-long collective learning journey centered on building an economy based on care and liberation. It aims to explore approaches for a solidarity economy led by BIPOC wisdom and practice.
Purpose of the pot: to support meaningful collaboration and participation among the community by ensuring everyone has access to what they need. This includes expenses such as travel, accommodation, food, and materials.
Parameters
Expenses must be reasonable and necessary - that is, that they are directly related to the work of each community member (supporting their own or their collectives organising capacity)

Process
- Person accessing the pot to write a brief couple of sentences about the expense and a photo or screenshot of the payment to send to [email protected] who will forward to community reviewers members
- The group will review all requests and approve them as long as they meet the community guidelines
- Expenses will be approved by community members at the end of every month. Two community members will hold this role each month (so they will sign off expenses twice in a one month period)
- We encourage community members to share what they accessed the pot for on the whatsapp group to encourage others to do the same
