that this can be a tough time of year for many people for a huge variety of reasons.  Be kind and thoughtful, take time to listen and understand.  Make this community board safe for people to express themselves - even more than we normally do.

If we can do that, I think we are doing everyone a huge favour.

What is the bravest thing you've ever said? asked the boy. 'Help,' said the horse.  'Asking for help isn't giving up,' said the horse. 'It's refusing to give up.”

    Agreed this can be a difficult time for all sorts of people for all sorts of reasons, we can all be here for people using the forum over the holidays and we should all try and be good neighbours as well. 🎄

    Thanks for sharing this with us @JustPete. I completely agree.

    Come on team Scope, let's show everyone else how it's done! We support each other and are kind to each other.

    That's what makes Scope the supportive and friendly space it is. We're also not afraid to reach out for support if needed  <3
