Funding | mfi2018

A key feature of the event is that all sessions are available free of charge to the public, so that no-one is prevented from coming by the cost of a session.

In order to achieve this, we rely on the generosity of many people and organisations. These include

Grant making bodies. In the past, Malvern Town Council, County Councillors and other funding bodies have provided support.
Attendees. Although all sessions are free, we ask for donations towards costs of the weekend.
The venues - these are provided free of charge by the managing bodies.
Our speakers. Speakers not funded by other organisations have all reasonable expenses paid. However, their time is usually given freely, for which we are extremely grateful.
The organisers and other volunteers who give their time freely.
Donors - those who underwrite the cost of the Weekend if expenses exceed income.

If we should make a profit by our donations exceeding expenses, this will be carried forward to the next Weekend.
