Dealing with Unemployment
Being unemployed isn't usually welcome, but it is something that happens to many of us during our working lives. However, it is not necessarily a negative situation to be in; many people have used it as an opportunity for positive change in their lives and careers. What is important is how you react to the situation.
The Jobcentre Plus advisors can put you in touch with various organisations who may be able to help you in getting training to get another job or start your own business. Blue Orchid is one such organisation who may be able to help you. You can also go to the National Careers Service advice website for more details or call them on the following number 0800 100900
