Organisation

Freegle has been formed as a collective of groups. We are still very new in terms of our national organisational structure as we are building ourselves democratically (and all that consultation can take a long time!).

We have adoopted a Constitution which outlines the structure and decision making processes we have mutually agreed to follow.

One area under consideration is whether we should consider becoming a charity. Have a look at the page Charitable Status for some Q & A about this

We have adopted a Financial Management and Controls document to enable the opening of a bank account. There have been a polls to discussions to adopt a variety of other policies and procedures. All of these are listed on this wiki under the category category:Policies, Procedures, Remits

The question of trademarking the name Freegle is also a recurring topic of discussion. An interesting article to read about other's experiences on this can be found at [1]
