A wee update about how the money is being used from the camp..
🕑 Added 2023-08-25 13:56:49 +0000 UTC A wee update about how the money is being used from the campaign! We found a farmer who agreed to cut the fields and take the bails away, they cut the grass and uplifted it all (it was shit I don’t think they can do anything with it or sell it but I have a sneaking suspicion they might of done one over on us). We paid 912 pounds for the fuel it took to do it, and that’s that. Sadly they left the bails which is kind of shit but a learning experience. But we have like 3 big ass freshly cut fields and a plan for them so we’re pretty happy! We’re also using that money to pay a soil consultant to see if we can use the bales to spread out or if that will just increase weeds. This was really helpful as the money I’ve saved up for this thing is going towards paying the planning application fee of 5k, the architect for 4.7k (ish), the civil engineer 6k, solar panel installation of 5k, construction of site 20-30k, staff accommodation 50-60k. These are big numbers, and we don’t have all that saved up, but we got time and we’re in a better starting space than most first year charities! So having dedicated money to help on this project was amazing, thank you! What I’ll do better next time as director: not get so intimidated by their experience and have myself in a situation where I’m desperate for help. I’ll state clearly what work needs done and won’t pay anything until it is done, contracts and written agreements are a must. I’m a people pleaser so I’m quick to make sure I’m the only one who is inconvenienced by a situation so I’ll go out of my way to pay people. I can’t do that as a charity and have to know when to stand my ground. If I could do it again I’d wait til all the work is done to ensure what we talked about is finished before payment is sent.
