I use TinyWow for lots of things but can't see anything to do with flowcharts on there.

Lucidchart (there's a free version). To be honest though I mostly use Powerpoint as it's easy to move shapes aroumd without mucking everything else up and then save the file as an image.

I was hoping to avoid PP, I'm not that great with it.

It doesn't throw it all out of whack if I insert a box?

I use one called something like draw.io that works pretty well

I'm not keen on the automatic chart creation in PP, but I can bash out a decent chart in no time just using shapes (as text boxes) and connectors, and the individual shapes are really easy to resize and move around.

Ok Thank you.

Its just that this is going to be unfinished for a while and will need to keep having bits inserted or changed around while we finialise it.

I'll have a go in PP.

I really like diagram.net - you can download your finished charts as transparent PNGs to be placed over the top of existing documents/backgrounds. Really intuitive and doesn’t require signing up.

Sorry, that’s diagrams.net with an s!

Yep, the one I said, draw.io is now called diagrams.net and it's really good

I quite like excel if you haven't got visio.

You can remove all the squares to a blank white sheet - then use the text boxes/arrows and shaped to make it.
