"Has been unemployed for 5 months. On JSA. Paid £500 of
his own money to go on a chainsaw licence course in Preston. - 2 days. Getting
up at 4am. Wasn't eligible to look for work on these days so lost money for two
weeks. JCP put him on a mandatory work placement - couldn't get money out of
post office until 9am and so couldn't get to work for 7am leading to a sanction
for 2 months. Payment will start again in August."
