    Shame there's not the ability to say all that apply, as I also hope to offer emotional support to other members, & do find that talking about your day, & sharing interests, joining in with games, etc., helps us 'connect' with each other.
    Altho I may read news from other sources, the links from members of the Scope team, & our members, I do also read. Then, I always find learning more about other people's disabilities/conditions is always good; it gives us a better understanding about what others face, & about the common ground we may share.
    Perhaps have an importance in descending order of which apply, or 'tick' all that apply?

    Thanks so much @chiarieds :) I think for now (if I can) I'll edit the other option to say: other or more than one option.

    But I do intend to send out a form version of this question for members to answer in that format if they prefer, and had considered making them ordered by priority, that's a really good point.

    Well I have ticked other just so I don’t have to only choose the one option. 

    I would say for me - 

    1. To help others in areas where I have specific knowledge the best I can. 

    2. To engage with others about day to day news, what I have been up to, general chat, etc. 

    3. I have made friends and it’s nice to stay in touch.

    As others have said need the option to select more than one option so I will vote when that is sorted
