    It can be frustrating to be out of pocket for reasons beyond your control. Everyone reading this will have had a row at some stage with a shop worker refusing to give you a refund because you can’t find a receipt, or your mobile network thinking you definitely did want to pay for that additional insurance you don’t actually need without knowing about it. It’s annoying, unfair and you are often left feeling powerless.

    But all these minor annoyances pale into insignificance compared to losing a large chunk of your income and having absolutely nothing you can do about it.

    Hi Everyone!

    So today is the day of the Scope Apprentice Challenge! We are at the Scope Shop in Wimbledon ready and raring to go with Sue the shop manager and her team of volunteers to make lots of money for Scope.

    We have Alex Hitchcock (finance team at Scope) as our very own Santa - supported by his two elves! And a whole heap of Christmas treats and goodies which we hope will bring in lots of customers and increase that all important fundraising.

    So the day has finally arrived - the Scope Apprentice Challenge! If you are in Wimbledon or Crawley, get down to the Scope shops and support the teams.

    There has been frantic activity over the past week, with selling going on all over the Scope office, and all over the internet, but it all comes down to today. The teams are just about level on £600 each going into the big day. It'll be very close!

    At the beginning of 2011, over 400 Scope campaigners wrote to the chief executives of some of the country’s major cinema chains (as well as to theatre owners) including Odeon, Vue and Cineworld.

    As a result of all your efforts, Scope was contacted by the Cinema Exhibitors Association, the cinema industry’s representative body. We had a meeting with them in October 2011 where we were able to explain why it was so important that cinemas made sure disabled people could enjoy the same cinematic experience as anybody else.
