Stories & experiences of Workfare

  1. After managing to get out of a MWA placement without a sanction they set up another one. Same goes no address i can reasonably go to in order to express concerns to them, as i do not have a working phone at the moment (was clearly explained to JCP/GW)North shields to Durham is not a reasonable distance to go into their office for concerns)...Also worth noting is the fact this is going to be a position that has been replacing paid work for at the very least 4 years as i was asked to go to them with the New Deal Working Links on multiple occasions a long time ago... makes it all the more irritating as i know there isn't even a chance at getting a job there.
