Save Darwen’s JobCentre
By Nicole G
There’s a new petition on the 38 Degrees website, started by Kara who lives in Darwen, which you might be interested in:
SAVE DARWEN’S JOBCENTRE!
Campaign created by Kara Rhodes-Gilrane
To: UK government and Blackburn and Darwen council
What: Do not shut down our JobCentre!
Why is this important: People depend on JobCentres like Darwen’s own. They help people to get back on their feet and find a much-needed job after a stage of having been unemployed, which is difficult for anyone.
It isn’t fair that some people, just because they may have been made redundant or because they cannot find a job on their own, will have to remain unemployed. Darwen is becoming a great town. Let us stay great and keep our JobCentre.
The open consultation for the one in your area can be found on the parliamentary website here:
