An update of the state of UK Gov Camp’s finances.

The annual UK Gov Camp 2025 (ukgc25) unconference on Saturday 18 January 2025 was a great success. Thank you to everyone who supported us and/or came to the event.

 

Income was £17,500.00 and expenses £14,800.70, which breaks down as:

  • +£17,500 sponsorship
  • -£4,500 catering (aprox)
  • -£4,262 creche
  • -£2,800 post event drinks and food
  • -£1,263.11 bursaries
  • -£729.76 organiser’s expenses
  • -£647.39 organiser’s hoodies
  • -£598.44 other expenses

Notes:

  • The £4,500 catering hasn’t been invoiced to us yet, hence being labelled as “approx” (though it’s likely to be less than that).
  • Organisers volunteer their time for free, with some of us claiming for travel and accomodation, and the hoodies being a special thank you gift.
  • “Other expenses” include audio / visual equipment, venue security, consumables and things for the DIY drinks station.

 

The current bank balance is £18,667.85.

If we subtact:

  • £4,850 in current grant fund requests,
  • £4,500 in unpaid ukgc25 catering costs,
  • £5,000 of Open Data Camp’s money we hold.

 

That leaves £4,317.85 for rest of the year.
