Placards on why we need to keep jobcentres open

Kilburn Unemployed Workers Group activists privy to Jobcentre goings-on

Jobcentre closures would isolate claimants from KUWG and each other

KUWG members privy to jobcentre claimants' side of the story

Digital Jobcentres are virtual detention centres for claimants, isolating them from comrades

Digital jobcentres would isolate claimants further, especially those who have difficulties with online forms

'Charity' Reform.uk advises Government that jobcentre closures would be a very good thing.
Claimants know otherwise.

Perhaps the best way to tell a 'charity' like Reform.uk that it is completely in the wrong would be to report it to the Charity Commissioners regarding Reform.uk political bias?

Thursdays, Kingsgate Community Centre

Meeting structure

Helping you feel at home: We meet weekly in the Small Hall at KingsgateCC and start gathering from 3pm, attempting to start the meetings at about 3:15pm and definitely before 3:30pm.

Bring and share refreshments are included. We are not like the 'No eating or drinking on the premises' jobcentre.

The formal meetings start with firstname and what benefit we are on or a one-liner about what brings us to KUWG. (Pensioners and other allies welcome.)

We then ask for casework from those present, arrange who will help with what case, and go onto discussing campaigning leafleting and such outreach activities. We also arrange who will do the chairing or facilitating and note-taking for the following week. Rotating these roles helps minimise the risk of being dominated by one person and helps us build our skills as we share the workload.

Meetings actually finish at about 5:20pm to allow for putting tables and chairs back and leaving the kitchen facilities ready for the next group.
