The main aim of the Life Support community is to help ourselves and each other with evidence-based knowledge. A second aim is having a group that will be sympathetic to people’s questions and situations, if these arise, without trespassing on privacy. It is not meant to be an Agony Aunt column.

Topics can include:

• ways to look after health at different stages of life

• family interactions, triumphs and challenges

• people who are on their own and their triumphs and challenges

• children and education

• technology in people’s lives: effects, coping and solutions

• money, housing, and work issues

• identity, e.g. race, gender and sexuality

• where to find support and what alternatives there might be

The Life Support community takes the form of:

• plain, useful information about topics and where to find practical help

• sharing articles about health and social issues and how they affect people personally

• sharing experiences or questions and asking others to respond with suggestions or examples from their lived experience

It will always be a work in progress depending on what people bring to the community, so don’t be shy. If we have a genuine interest or question and we are respectful we can give this experiment a whirl.
