Hi, If you are hoping to come to DART please reply to this email by *next Monday*. Sorry for the tight turnaround, but this information will be really helpful in working out the minimum we need to raise in order to make DART a reality. Please just reply to me, and I promise to not share your information any wider. So, here we go. The two main questions for you are: - In terms of total costs, £900 per person is our current worst case estimate (although the actual final cost will almost certainly be less). Our aim is to fundraise enough money to cover the whole team, but we need to understand what the absolute minimum is that we need to raise to make the trip possible. To do this, we need to know what is the maximum amount you can commit to paying? Anything from zero to over £900 is completely acceptable. - We will probably want to buy flights in February. We’re unlikely to have raised enough to cover the costs by then - would you be able to cover part of, or the whole of, the cost of a flight? Current upper estimate for this is £550, and we would strive to reimburse you as much as possible. Obviously we will endeavour to fund as much as possible for everyone. We will also be keeping regular TR funds separate; DERT costs will be coming out soon so there won't be much in the way of regular funds anyway. In the event that we do not raise enough funds to cover everyone's expenses, priority will be given to those who can afford the least. This will likely mean that not everyone will be subsidised the same amount. Having discussed this with Becky and Martin we feel this is the fairest way to do things as the priority is to enable the team to be able to go, regardless of individuals’ financial circumstances, but if you have any objections to that please raise them. If you have any questions please feel free to get in touch. Or if you’re uncomfortable talking to me you can speak to Becky or Martin. Emma
