Title: My work placement in a cattery
Post by: mervyn7451 on January 12, 2012, 18:52:41 PM

Had my interview with the collage this morning to help me get back to work,Hopefully in around 3 weeks I'll start a work placement in either the ASSISI or Cats Protection for 8 weeks.I called the CPL yesterday & set the balls in motion.

It was delayed because they stopped my ESA before Christmas despite my Doctor saying I'm not fit for work,but is now back on as I'm appealing.

As well as my sick benefit,I'll also be paid an extra £15 a week plus travel costs as well as given help to retrain for a new role.I calle dthe CPL yesterday & let them know I was looking into this so fingers crossed,I'll soon have my hands on some more pussy...CATS!! PUSSY CATS!! ;D

Phone call from the ASSISI this afternoon asking what I'm interested in doing,I stated I wanted not only to work with the animals but also to see what goes into running a charitable orginisation.

Merv, that's fantastic and good luck with your appeal too.  Unfortunately they can over rule what your doctor says which is annoying as your doctor knows you and knows what you are capable of more than them.
