Dear all
The Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC) has recommended that the Wikimedia
Foundation awards Wikimedia UK £277,300 towards our work in 2016/17. Their
comments on our proposal are here, along with the other organisations being
assessed in this round:

This is around 12% less than we had requested, so we will need to look at
our plans next year in order to balance the budget, however it is still a
good result and I would like to thank Daria and the rest of the team for
all their work on the proposal this year.
Best wishes
Lucy
