Wednesday's Helplines Santa Service team
We can take anything between 40 and 60 calls, emails and forum interactions in a day between us. On a busy day when there is something in the press which worries folk - that might be 80 to a 100 phone calls alone. We usually open longer at times like that. An average call is 10 minutes long but some can be over an hour. We will always spend time with people when they need that bit of extra support.
So yesterday being a Wednesday following a Bank Holiday was very good.
Thanks for asking - we'll post more up like this on our web pages in the new Year

PS A further thought: are you all affected by the dreaded A too?
Helplines are now closed until Tuesday 4th at 10am but we will be keeping an eye on our little bit of the forum over the weekend.
Don't forget - we are back fully open for Emails Phone Calls Letters and your postings here in the New Year - as usual.
Best wishes for 2011 and take care out there
