All AWOL events are free to participate in. However, we do incur some expenses, such as the costs of hosting this website.

We’re currently unable to take any donations online. We will review this situation in the future if we grow to the point where this will become feasible.

We can take cash donations at our in-person events. If you would like to make a cash donation please speak to one of the Co-ordinators at an AWOL in-person event.

Should you wish to make a donation via an electronic transfer please speak to a Co-ordinator at an in-person event, or e-mail us at: associatedwritersoflondon@gmail.com

(Please note that all AWOL personnel are volunteers, and do not receive any payment for the time they commit to AWOL. All donations received will go directly towards the costs incurred in running AWOL.)

Merchandise

You can now purchase AWOL merchandise via eBay! (Limited numbers available, whilst stocks last.)

First, there’s the AWOL Notebook and Pen set (£13.47 + postage) The notebook has a huge 480 lined pages – large enough to write a whole novel! The pen is a ballpoint pen with black ink.

And there’s also the AWOL tote bag (£22.54 + postage). This is a large tote bag with a zip, and a small internal compartment, and is large and sturdy enough to carry a laptop.

All proceeds from the sale of merchandise go towards AWOL’s running costs.
