Points to consider when preparing your bid
Include how much you are hoping to spend
Include how what you are planning to do lines up with BCS objectives (the five pillars)
If your bid is significantly different from last year, say why
Remember to include all regular events that you support
Do not include any extra for contingency – MBFC hold contingency funds centrally

Carry forward mechanism
• Principles
– A member group that creates a surplus through income generating events is able to use that surplus not just in the current year, but also in the following two years
– Unused amounts from allocations cannot be carried forward
– To use the carry forward funds the group submits a Supplementary Funding Request form to MBFC
