Is it possible to put word doc's and PDF's some where so that the public can access them with a link?
I have about 30 files 15 word and 15 PDF all contain foodbank lists for Greater manchester and would like to put them somewhere that the public can access them with a link.
I don't know what to do so would love step by step instructions if its possible.
Thanks

Can you not host them on your FB page?
If you can't do that then create a shared folder via Google Drive or MS OneDrive, or any other cloud storage medium.
Also, if you can it's best to convert the word docs to PDFs as well, unless you're expecting others to be able to edit them.1 -
I have now done this so hopefully people can access them through this link
