In the interests of transparency, here’s a list of the contributors to the bar tab at Wortley Hall last year.
The tab was running on Monday and Wednesday evening and came to £897.10. The contributions are as follows (in alphabetical order):
Agile Collective - £200
Gilded Splinters - £50
Go Free Range - £200
Outlandish - £367.10
Principle 6 - £50
Webarchitects & Media co-op - £30 (apologies - I don’t know the split of this amount)
There was a lot of uncertainty around the bar tab during the event. It came about organically at the time and we’ve since sorted it out between those of us listed above.
Interesting to note the similarity between this and the Open Conf bar tab / sponsorship.
I think we should look at getting this proposed and agreed ahead of events in future and encouraging more but fewer contributions. If the majority of orgs in CoTech puts in £10 - £100, for instance, we can cover these sorts of things easily.
