The Sharing Life is a community built on lived experiences, shared wisdom, and trusted expert input. This policy explains how to understand and use the content we publish.

 

2. Shared stories and user content

  • Stories, comments, and posts shared by our community members are personal experiences only.
  • They do not represent the views of The Sharing Life.

3. Expert contributions

  • From time to time, we publish content written by or with experts (for example, doctors, lawyers, therapists, financial advisers, or academics).
  • We vet our contributors, but their content is general information only and is not a substitute for professional advice tailored to your circumstances.
  • Always consult a qualified professional before making personal, health, financial, or legal decisions.

 

4. Accuracy and updates

  • We do our best to ensure content is accurate and up to date.
  • However, information changes quickly, and we cannot guarantee that all content will always reflect the latest research, law, or best practice.
  • We may edit or remove content at our discretion.

 

5. Emergency or crisis situations

  • The Sharing Life is not an emergency service.
  • If you are in crisis or at risk of harm, call 999 (UK) or your local emergency services.
