Send Jonathan to Keswick 2020

Donation protected
One of the highlights of returning to the UK every other year has always been the Keswick Convention, an annual conference for Christians, with excellent bible teaching that provides great resources for people of all ages. Next summer will be the final year before university, and so it would be really great if I could spend a week at a bible conference before beginning to get in the zone for heading off to university in the September. Unfortunately, it looks as though I won't be able to attend at the moment, unless I can raise the funds to travel up for it by myself.

So, I'd like to raise the £370 that it'll take to get me up to Keswick for Convention Week 1 between 11-17 July. Below, you can see the breakdown of those costs. One way of donating is to cover one of my specific expenses - for example, you could specifically pay for my bus journey from the train station to the centre of town by donating £7.20. If you mention what it's towards when you donate, I'll put your name next to that expense so that when I'm making the trip I know who to thank for that part of it!

Alternatively, any money you donate that you don't mention is for a specific cost will go towards the general amount I need to raise (But it would be pretty cool for me to know exactly who is subsidising a specific meal or night of sleep :)).

Costs:
£21 - The train from London up to Penrith, the nearest train station to Keswick [Covered!]
£7.20 - My bus fare from Penrith Station to Keswick on the first day [Covered!]
£10 - Dinner on arrival day [Covered by Elia!]
£20x7 - Accommodation (feel free to subsidise one specific night :)) [Covered!]
£3.50x7 - Breakfast is offered by the hostel at £3.50 a day (feel free to donate per rasher of bacon honestly) [Covered by Miss Chan et al.!]
£20x6 - I'll budget £20 for lunch and dinner together each day [Covered!]
£7.20 - The bus fare back to Penrith Station [Covered!]
£34.60 - The train down to Oxford (I'll be so depressed it'll suck but I'll still be thankful to whoever pays for it I promise) [Covered by Miss Chan]
£10 - Platform fees for GoFundMe (because they mislead you when you donate; they do actually charge me)

Thanks so much for taking the time to read this. If you want to know more about the conference and why exactly I'm so eager to attend, please talk to me!
