Having lived in Sussex for most of my working life, I have always been in continuous employment, apart from when I took a break when my children were small. But this all changed when I moved to Worthing and began to look for a job. I ended up having to apply for Jobseeker's Allowance for a time and I have since done a myriad of office jobs, some found through local agencies and others I have secured myself. Unfortunately, all temporary. Again, I have many years of experience in working in all kinds of commercial businesses, large and small, and have always been very much valued as an employee. I am fortunate enough to be employed at the moment but it does seem to be a problem in and around Worthing as I have met others in much the same situation.
