Finding support during the festive period

[Sarah_Mencap]

Thank you all for making this community such a lovely and friendly place.

I hope you all have a peaceful and enjoyable holiday. Christmas can be a very difficult time for some families so please do feel free to share your thoughts and worries on here.

The moderator (me) will be taking a break over from Monday 23 December to Friday 3 January. You are welcome to post on here during this time – but I won’t be around to check and reply. You can also still report posts using the report button if you are concerned about them.

If you need help over the holidays our Learning Disability helpline is open for some of the time - mencap.org.uk/advice-and-su...

But if you need to talk to someone urgently then the Samaritans are available 24 hours a day, everyday. Call 116 123 for free. samaritans.org/

Wishing you a merry Christmas and a happy new year.

Sarah
