Re: Feeling downbeat
Hi Andy, no apologies needed for struggling and feeling low, most of us do at different points, it is frightening.

Re: Please may I ask if the KC Group would discuss an issue at the next committee meeting?

There is an issue here for people who might be sick/disabled in other ways and in receip...
