Re: Hyndburn Mela
The long term benefit is that you get a multic cultural community that is prepared to work together. The money is not thrown away and it is not gibberish - you're undermining a lot of hard work and enthusiasm by dismissing it in that way. You're also fueling all the racist arguments that have caused so much trouble in the past.
As for your other questions - if I thought for one minute that you were seriously capable of organising an event that 5,000 people came to then I might seriously consider applying for the funding for you.
