And what could a platform such as healthshared.com, a community-owned, do to support your clients through the autumn and into the winter months? Because we do find being connected with others really does help our motivation and our linking into other people. So you have a health-shared platform to then see what are the conditions or what's happening in your life that somebody else might be able to give you a bit of help and support on. It may be that it's the first time you've dealt with a health condition and you know it's a bit unnerving or you may have had this health condition for some time and you may have knowledge to impart to other people who are on that same journey. So using a platform can really help people to seek ways to find support and encouragement to manage their conditions as we go through the autumn and the winter. And looking ahead, you know, there's so many challenges, health challenges that many people face. What are your hopes for the health of your clients over the coming season? My hope for my clients is always that they try to obviously take time to look after their needs and that they seek that support when they need it so they don't feel that they can't find that help. But also it's keeping that connection going and even when it is dark, you know as we get into the darker nights and anxieties can get a bit larger as it's darker for longer. It's just for people to take some time to still connect with others and remember they're not going through a lot of these things on their own, there's always people to reach out to as we go through the winter.
