Local Giving.

To help fund these pop-up events eg materials, photocopying, reply paid envelopes, we are asking people if they would like to donate to our fund on Local Giving, the charity for community groups.  From 10am on Tuesday 13th October, anyone who donates £10 or less on-line,  will have that donation doubled by the charity.    You will find our account on Localgiving.com, search for Aireborough Neighbourhood Development Forum.

Local Giving say

Grow Your Tenner 2015 launches on 13th October

From Tuesday the 13th October at 10am, we’ll be matching one-time donations pound-for-pound up to £10, and monthly donations up to £10 per month for 3 months*. All charities with active Localgiving memberships are eligible to receive up to a maximum of £10,000 of match funding and the campaign will run across the whole of the UK.

With Gift Aid, a one-time donation of £10 made through Localgiving.com during Grow Your Tenner will generate £21.67** , so make sure you spread the word and start growing those tenners!

Other Event Funding

Any costs for event locations is being funded by local councillors –  both Morrisons and St Oswalds have been at no cost.   Leeds City Council have also provided us with a map, and their report documents (which would otherwise cost £80); however,  we only have a limited supply of paper response forms that they supply (they prefer people to respond on-line)  so need to print more, as many people are not on-line, or like a paper copy to look at and make notes, before they respond on line.

In addition,   Leeds City Council will not print any document they do not ‘consider to be in their interests’,  which includes our Guidance Notes on how to find your way through their documents, and how to respond.
