Support is needed to help sustain and further the work of the MWRC. Coordinating the work of the Centre requires the employment of a director and administrator. Our current administrator works one day per week through the joint support of our partner institutions. However, more administrative hours are needed for the Centre extend its work in the academy and church.
Our typical costs are:
Administrative costs (one day per week for one year) £3500
Cost of hosting the MWRC Annual Lecture £250
Cost of purchasing a Ph.D. thesis to aid student research £50
