Hi. I'm new here and thought I'd say hello.
I needed some advice regarding statutory sick pay and disability benefits and called Scope. I spoke to a lovely lady called Catherine who was really understanding and gave me some really useful advice. I'm finding myself in a difficult situation, she didn't judge, was very supportive and turned a difficult day into a hopeful one.
I hope you have all received useful advice and support from the helpline team too.
I look forward to chatting to others on here x

Unfortunately all the discussions are done by posting & replying to messages such as in this thread, as there isn't a live chat function.If you click on categories https://forum.scope.org.uk/categories you will find all the different discussions if you scroll down. The 'Coffee lounge' is also very popular for many & varied discussions, as well as a few games. Please see: https://forum.scope.org.uk/categories/coffee-lounge

Thank you all for the welcome and the advice, also the comments about my gorgeous girl. She is 13years old, bull mastiff cross and has the best nature, also the best company I could wish for. Pets really are our family aren't they? Tell me about yours..... x

There's no live chat. It's a forum and you comment on threads as you do here.

Welcome to the community @gina1970
Thank you for sharing your kind words about one of our helpline advisers. I'm really glad they could be of help!
Duchess is really beautiful. How long have you had her?
As the others have explained, we don't have a live chat function as such. However, by posting and commenting, you're responding to people in real time. There's usually someone around for a chat0
