My immediate concern is how we will go about paying for this, if we have collections over the next few meets (sorry i can't organise fundraising as I am not at the meets) we can at least pay for the first session. if we can invite members of the public in without too many issues like we had or would have had at Paignton library we can do a presentation then ask for donations towards room hire, we won't be making a profit as a lug any money raised will go directly to the venue, i guess, and any extra over 40 quid goes to the next months room hire.
