Funding &
Support

This project is run independently and without party funding.
Our aim is modest and practical:

To employ at least one full-time member of staff and operate from a small office. That requires roughly £1,000 per week to cover:
  
Staff costs
Office space
Basic equipment
Printing leaflets and flyers
Small, targeted publicity

 Nothing extravagant.
Just enough to run the project properly and consistently. All money received is used for the work of the project itself.
There are no shareholders or Central London offices.
If enough people contribute a small amount, the project can support itself and remain independent.
Any spare funding will go to help develop more ideas and to find more supporters. 

Ways to support
You can contribute in whatever way suits you.
There is no obligation, and no minimum beyond what feels reasonable to you.

1. Small random contributions
If you can spare £1, £2, £5 or any other amount, you can make a one-off or occasional contribution.
This helps greatly with day-to-day running costs.

 2. Basic individual membership — £5 per year
This is for people who want to show visible support. Members receive:
Email updates when significant site updates occur (you can of course disable updates if you wish)
Early access to new proposals being discussed.
A unique supporter number 
The option to have their name listed as a supporter 

 3. Individual Life membership — £20 (one-off)
For those who want to make a lasting contribution. Life members receive:
All the above
A personalised plastic membership card
A letter of thanks
Invitations to future online discussions and briefings

This is not about status.
It is simply a way to say: I support this idea, and I want it to continue.

Why we need support
We are self-funded.
This project does not belong to a party - we must remain utterly neutral.
So it does not receive any formal government funding.

That independence matters. It means:
Proposals can be written without political pressure or the "need to please"
Parties can be challenged fairly without hostility, fear or favour
Our focus can stay on practical outcomes

If this work is useful, support from the public will be what makes it possible.

How to contribute
Contributions and memberships are handled through PayPal, because most people already have an account and it avoids storing card details on this site. You can also make a payment to use with a credit or debit card via Paypal even if you do not have a Paypal account.

You can:
Make a small one-off contribution
Take out basic membership
Become a life member 

Every contribution, however small, helps keep the project running.
This is not about fundraising for its own sake.
It is about making this work sustainable.

If you think this project is worth existing, this is how you can help.
No pressure.
No guilt.

Just an option.
