Setup
If we are required to help for setup, we would normally arrive at least 30 minutes (or more) before the event, to setup and test technical equipment (see “Projector/screen”). We might need to arrive a little earlier, if you ask us to bring material for sale. Video/Audio/Material
Events cannot be recorded (video or audio) without consent. Although printed material may on occasions be available, original copies of slides via PDF is sold separately via USB, and cannot be copied/distributed. Visit costs
We do not charge for our time but are happy to accept any donations your church/organiser can afford, to sustain the ministry. For full days’ events, we kindly ask you to provide sustenance for speakers and companions (please see “Companions” and “Safety Procedures”) to help remain focused on the training course(s). Finally, please budget the cost of any necessary overnight stay and/or travel expenses (see “Travel cost” and "Hotel/overnight stay"). Travel costs
We request that travel costs are covered at 45p/mile to include the total distance travelled (eg. to the venue and back). This helps towards the cost of fuel, wear-and-tear, cost of car, insurance, tax etc. (but excludes parking costs). Mileage should also include any travel necessary between hotel and venue (if booked). Please use our office post code (NG24 1AD) to calculate distance travelled. If a flight is required, then please include the cost of a return flight. Companions
John Harris travels with his wife as a helper which also covers safety procedures (see “Safety procedure”). Safety procedures
For safety reasons, we travel in pairs and cannot stay in individual's houses. John Harris travels with his wife, therefore if any overnight stay is necessary, a double bed booking would suffice. Likewise, we also don’t permit female drivers for lifts unless accompanied by another male or female companion. In this case, since John Harris is accompanied by his wife and travels in the ministry’s vehicle, this restriction would not apply most of the time. |
Hotel/overnight stay
Most of the time, overnight stay is not necessary and usually only applies for full-day conferences/training. To see if an overnight stay is required, we add the total travel time (in both directions) plus the length of the event (including any required setup/clear up). If this total time is 8 hours or more, then an overnight stay* needs to be booked before or after the event, depending on what time the event starts. If this total time is 12 hours or more, then we require a hotel bookings for two nights. If the training/conference is more than 1 day long, then we require a hotel booking for each night including the night before the first day, and for the night of the last day. *An overnight stay is usually a double bed hotel booking (see “Safety procedures” for more details on our requirements). Likewise, if a flight is required, please make the appropriate flight adjustments for two. If this seems complicated please do not worry, we will work this out with you. Projector/screen
All our talks are PowerPoint driven and contain speakers’ notes. Therefore, our laptop needs to be at the front and connected to a projector. Total attendees
We have no minimum restriction to the total number of attendees. Ways to donate/pay expenses
For travel expenses, or to bless the ministry with an additional donation, please visit our donation portal. If you prefer to pay via bank transfer, feel free to email us. We kindly request that you email us if possible, after payment, with your reference, so we can associate the transaction with you. |
