Freegle Volunteer, National Volunteer, Member

We use the terms 'Freegle Volunteer', 'National Volunteer' and ‘Freegle Member’ regularly in our procedures. This is an attempt to briefly define those terms!

Freegle Volunteers:

Every Owner, Moderator and volunteer of local groups affiliated with Freegle shall be regarded as a member of the Freegle family. Other persons assisting Freegle, though not managing a local group, may also be accepted to join the FreegleUK Central group. All are known as Volunteers or Freegle Volunteers.

Verification that a person working with a local group is eligible as a Volunteer to join central discussion groups will be via an email to the -owner address of the local group.

National Volunteers:

The procedure for admitting volunteers who have kindly offered to help Freegle nationally to FreegleUK Central is explained in National Volunteers Procedure. Once a member of Central, National Volunteers are Freegle Volunteers.

Freegle Members:

All Freegle Volunteers (aged over 16) are eligible to apply to be a Freegle Member and we hope that as many Volunteers choose to do this as possible so that we can maintain our proud tradition of being a truly democratic organisation.

See Freegle Ltd Membership and Rules 12-20 for definitions of Members and the requirements of admittance and termination of membership.
