Fees and Concessions

On most of our events we offer three fee options:

• Standard fee - this fee covers our costs in providing the event, kept low because of the voluntary work contributed by our leaders and members
• Supported fee - a reduced fee (see below)
• Supporting fee - an optional higher fee for those who wish to contribute to our Support fund

Supported Places

Concessions, for Students and Low or No-Waged Applicants

We are registered as a charity and have a support fund provided by donations. We know that financial pressures can make it difficult to pay for a retreat and so through this fund we offer a number of supported places on each retreat at reductions of 50% of standard fee.

Supported places must be booked in advance of the retreat, by selecting that option at the time of booking, but are not guaranteed to be available since the number available for that retreat may already have been allocated.

How to obtain a supported place

• If you wish to book a supported place to attend a WCF retreat there is no application procedure, you simply select that fee option when making your booking.
• The booking page for each retreat indicates whether there are any supported places still available for that retreat. View the retreat details by by following the 'details and booking' link for that event from the Events listing, the go to the event booking page (you will need to login).

Occasionally a further reduction to bring the fee down to 25% of full fee may be possible. To apply, contact our admin by filling out the details on our contact form.

Donations to the Supported Place Fund

Please contact the treasurer or refer to the donations page if you would like to make a donation to the fund or to other WCF projects. This would be very helpful in assisting us to maintain and hopefully expand the number of supported retreat places.
