In our Carers forum we are celebrating @octavia for all their wonderful support and input in multiple issue based and social threads around the carers side such as here and here. 😊
I’d also like to take a moment to celebrate our Community Guides. @Shaz51 @eth @outlander @CheerBear @Faith-and-Hope @Teej @frog - they have been doing an amazing job at helping orientate and welcome new members, share helpful information and offer amazing support across the forums, particularly when people are unsure how and where to navigate their way around too. A big thank you and cheer to you guys this month too!
