That's a good positive way to look at this.
Exploring alternative sources of funding is always a good idea; and with
the yearly fundraiser being so successful it always risk taking a
backseat...
The Foundation have got the annual event fairly well nailed - this could be
an interesting way to explore other options.

Ok, the decision has been made and Wikimedia UK will
not be taking part in
the annual fundraiser. It's ridiculous management speak, but let's view
this as an opportunity.
Wikimedia UK now has a fundraiser on staff who will unexpectedly have a
lot spare time. This is an excellent opportunity to start broadening the
charity's revenue sources. Perhaps Katherine can produce an options paper?
