Disentangle charity and personal email addresses on FB

Hi. In the tiny bit of spare time not lavished on Wikipedia, I run a charity. I set up its Facebook page as a 'business' page (or whatever FB calls them) when I was logged in as me. I'd quite like to associate the charity's email address to the charity's page, instead of my personal one, but I cannot for the life of me work out how to do it. Happy to follow steps on a web browser or in Android app. Go easy on me, I'm not a tech savvy person. Thanks, --Dweller (talk) Become old fashioned! 20:52, 8 January 2019 (UTC)

Dweller, instead of doing that, could you just shut down the charity's page and start over again? Or would that entail too much work for other reasons? Nyttend (talk) 02:22, 13 January 2019 (UTC)

Nice thought. I can't do that. We'd lose a hard-won following and history of dialogue and engagement. --Dweller (talk) Become old fashioned! 12:19, 13 January 2019 (UTC)

Can you just go to the general settings page, and then edit the contact to add a charity email address? And remove your personal email address? You may then have to register again as a person. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 02:49, 16 January 2019 (UTC)

Graeme Bartlett, but that would mean that emails prompted by my personal Facebook presence would go to the charity. Which is worse than the current situation. --Dweller (talk) Become old fashioned! 15:32, 17 January 2019 (UTC)
