Over the past few years, many organisations, charities, small independent businesses, schools, and libraries have benefited from contributions of goods and money from authors, now done centrally under a Community Fund.
The fund is created by profits from sales of books, plus personal donations from the members of Badman, and gifts from associated businesses.
