Thank you to Chris for preparing this report on behalf of Freegle which we agreed should be published on Central.
Professional Fundraiser
We have agreed to pay up to £500 to a professional fundraiser. The aim is to explore and apply for suitable grants to put Freegle on a more sustainable footing, and is funded from the donation we received which was reserved for sustainability.
