Single mums beware: look for work now or lose your benefits…

…that’s the type of letter that the government is sending out to thousands of single mothers.

It’s not that long ago that one parents used to be able to stay on benefits until their children reached 16 years of age, but four years ago the Labour government reduced that age to seven years. Now, the Coalition government want to bring that age down further still, and single parents whose youngest child is five years of age are being told that they should go back to work, or have risk having their benefits removed as “last resort”for two weeks.

Single parents will be receiving a letter from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) telling them that they can no longer stay at home but must be actively looking for work.
