ME Association’s Focus on Employment and Education

They want to raise awareness and understanding of:

• the struggle to hold down a job,
• the fear of losing a job and facing an uncertain future reliant on benefits,
• the effect that giving up a career and the loss of employment can have,
• the uncertainty of life on benefits,
• the loss of education,
• the difficulties encountered when trying to continue in education,
• the successes and disappointments that studying can bring.
