ok cool, that's reasonably close. I think cost is a big concern here, and is gonna be a concern with the judges unless we can somehow get some big sponsers or grants, which is gonna be difficult to get without charity status, so that needs to be WikimediaUK's biggest priority.  We might wanna see if we can get grant money from the lottery, and get in touch with ministers like Minister for Trade etc. Contacting council's around the of london to see if they can provide facilities is also another idea i had.
