Work and training attended by participants
We pay above national living wage and cover counselling costs. This is to prevent care experienced people being placed into further
poverty because they want to create change in the system they grew up in. We aim to be a movement that doesn't ask anyone to do any work for free (unless they ask too!) and encourages to pay people an amount of money that enables them to do more than simply "exist"

Any work is paid at £11.50 an hour for casual work.
Full Time staff pay is set at £450 a week for 36 hours.

Travel – UK

C.E.M will reimburse the reasonable costs of amounts necessarily expended on travelling. This will be decided by the team when any travelling is being planned how much can be covered. A valid receipt or invoice clearly showing the total amount, date, and what the payment is for must be uploaded when doing this.

Training costs for courses

Any training taken on will be paid for by development leads and invoiced back. A valid receipt or invoice clearly showing the total amount, date, and what the payment is for must be uploaded when doing this.

Payments are made weekly, once they have been approved by an admin. Always put in an invoice a week in advance where possible.

The content you put in the description category will be listed publicly on the page so please do not include information you wish to remain confidential in that text box.
