It was a bad day at work. Lourdes was informed by her bosses that her employment contract has to be terminated in a few weeks, because the company that she works for was going declare bankruptcy. This is bad news definitely, especially for Lourdes who has a family to feed and two kids to send to school. While life has already been difficult after her husband's untimely passing three years ago, now it's even more difficult. She knows that she needs to do something right away. Her kids depend on her so she has to keep moving. She called the government agency to know about unemployment benefits london, just in case it might take a while before she can find another job. Fortunately, the benefits she can claim when she loses her job would somehow suffice to support her family's basic needs. Given the amount that she can get from her Jobseekers' Allowance, she knows that she needs to be more conscious about her spending habits. Lourdes explained this to her kids, while assuring them that one day, things will get better.
