When I am talking with professionals I notice they are very keen to signpost to other organisations, that’s how it works here.

I had to look up A&E as I knew it didn’t stand for arts and entertainment, a network here! Accident and Emergency, comparable to the ER (Emergency Room) in the US. I know you have different words there on some things even though both countries speak English.
I also didn’t know the meaning of signpost in this context, I just found it’s a sign on a post. It sounds like it means give a referral to someplace else. Lately it feels like I don’t know ANY words as I’ve looked up words in my books too.
We have income and age restrictions for benefits or programs too. So many fall through the cracks because of this and I’m sure it’s about money.
Well if you see this know I’m thinking of you.
