M4 Learning Community 29-30 Sept 2023

Cost Announcement 

We hope you agree that the quality of the training and potential value to you and your team is very high. Having reviewed our first year at Counties Planting Network we realise we are not covering the cost of the M4 training and therefore, we will charge £90 per person per gathering to more fully reflect the costs involved to Counties. 

There are three cohorts attending this learning community plus an Observers track.

• The money will go to cover the cost of the M4 training process including assessments, online training, learning community and coordinating coaching. 
• If the gathering is held in-person, the cost also includes an evening meal on Friday and lunch on Saturday.
• After a team member is signed up we will contact them to start the online preparation for the M4 learning community. Before the weekend gathering we would like team members to do the following tasks: View the online training videos on the topic and answer the reflection questions. 
• Other plants/re-plants are receiving financial support from supporter churches to help offset the costs for team members.
• If you are unable to get local support to help with the cost of this gathering and need it, send a note to James Hyde, (james.hyde@countiesuk.org) and we will get back to you. 

Volunteers will host us from Counties and the Free Methodist Church UK.
