Freegle Direct Categories

Categories are used so that members can just look for the type of post they are interested in. Hopefully  the statistics that can be harvested can also be used my Freegle when applying for grants.

These at present are being used but may be changed later to fit the posting pattern across the UK better.

This is how the Categories were chosen.
