    Hi all
    Yes we are listening – we do very much monitor what is being discussed and as a rule only “intervene” when necessary. On the whole, the forums have had a very positive feel to them recently but of course we are here to respond / help / support all of you.
    We are constantly looking at how to improve services across both the site and the app but unfortunately cannot usually manage both at the same time. We have upgraded the App and are in the process of including several more languages. When this is complete we can then focus back onto the site which will include looking at the provision of the groups and forums. I hope you can bear with us as we will be looking for feedback as to what you think would improve the service
    Regards
    Paul

    Good to hear that you are making such positive progress and that mediatating and exercise are providing some of the answers. I hope that you can continue to find support through the community here at GT and if you need any advice, please do not hesitate to reach out on the helpline

    A familiar theme today – unfortunately in supporting him you are also enabling him to continue to live the way he does. Have a look at the Stepchange (www.stepchange.org) website in terms of debt management and try to connect with one of us to talk through your issues. We now have advisers available from 8am until 12pm that can offer you support in your very difficult cirumstances

    Hi Loopy

    You are being put in an impossible postion by your son and it brings up some many feelings which are very difficult to deal with. I would suggest in the first place contacting the team to see what practical advice is available as every situation is different. We now have people available between 8am and 12pm who can offer some advice and someone to talk to about the situation you find yourself in
