Mentors Team Report 2015 06
Report for Freegle Mentors
June 2015
The Mentor team is a small team of hard working moderators who give up some of their time to help mentor new groups for the first six months of their groups being launched. They also try to restart some groups that appear to be abandoned and they care for groups that have either been handed over centrally for Freegle to run and need new mod teams to be recruited or that they have been asked to look after whilst the owner is ill or unable to look after their group for short periods.
Mentors are available for holiday cover for any groups going away so that groups don't need to be left unattended, so if you are planning a holiday, please do let us help rather than leave your group unmoderated while you are away.
The list below is just for the groups that are currently centrally owned and need new owners and mods. If any mod teams local to any ofthese groups would like to take any of these groups on as permanent new owners, please contact us.

There is just one group that is being mentored as a brand new group, although some of the group owners from groups previously mentored have asked their mentor to stay on for guidance and back up. We are also providing holiday cover for 3 groups.
The mentor team is currently very short handed. if anyone on Central thinks they may be able to help with mentoring groups and caretaking groups, please contact us at mentors@ilovefreegle.org.
