A bulk mail was sent out by the Board to all affiliated group owner addresses re. Freegle Ltd membership:
Hi <group name> Volunteers,
Dear Freegle Volunteer, this is a reminder email in case you missed the first one. It seems to have taken forever, but at long last we can all sign up to be members of the new Freegle Ltd. The more serious info is covered later, but basically we can, for the bargain fee of just £1, have formal membership of the new Freegle organisation. Please join and together we'll continue to make our online network the best it can be. Please go here http:// freegle.it/membership?verify to find out more.
Best wishes

Hi <group name> Freegle Volunteers,
In February we let you know that all Freegle Volunteers can now become shareholders (members) of Freegle Ltd. Very many thanks to all of you who have already done this. We want to make sure that everyone knows about this opportunity so that as many Volunteers as possible can take part in the voting at the first Freegle Ltd AGM. All Freegle Volunteers are entitled to be shareholders but only shareholders can vote in AGM polls and stand and vote for a new Board of Directors. We will be announcing the date of the AGM shortly and this will be your chance to hear about Freegle Ltd's first year, let us know your thoughts on future plans as well as propose changes. If you would like to submit an item for the agenda please send it to secretary @ ilovefreegle.org To take up this chance and find out more please have a look at http:// freegle.it/JoinFreegleLtd?verify
