Extraordinary expenses
The agreement of an institution to host a Daphne Jackson Fellow entails the provision of ordinary facilities made available to other staff. This will include such things as stationery, photocopying, phone and fax facilities, office space and computer maintenance. It will also include the cost of day-to-day laboratory disposable items.
Each Daphne Jackson Fellow has an allocated extraordinary expenses allowance to account for items not covered by the host organisation. This allowance of £1,000 per annum may be used for unusual laboratory requirements which the host organisation would not normally have available, for items which are solely for personal use and peculiar to the project, and for travel to conferences.
Claims for this allowance may be made by the Fellow directly to the Trust. Alternatively Fellows together with their supervisors may apply for the allowance to be paid into a local account and drawn on as needed. In this case the Trust would require a schedule at the end of each year as to its use. Both the supervisor and Fellow must agree the use of the allowance and the Trust will adjudicate on the use of the allowance if necessary.
