Good evening all,

 

I am seeking some advice for my daughter please from all you benefit Gurus.

 

My daughter is 18 years old and has found herself an apprenticeship 110 miles away from home :-(

 

She is living with a friend for a tenner a week and earning £74 (for her 35 hour week) However, she has to pay £38 a week for her travel, which we thought was going to be taken care of under her apprenticeship - it's not. Is she entitled to claim any help for this? We've ruled out JSA because she's obviously not able to actively seek work but beyond this allowance we have no clue.

 

Any help and advice appreciated.

 

Many thanks

Hi Nystagmite,

 

Thanks for looking in.

 

The apprenticeship agency she joined up with, told her they would pay her travel as expenses, she has since found out they wont. She's 18, she done this off her own back, and god bless her innocence has taken their word at face value. Now I'm funding her fares out of my benefits... I aint coping, she feels bad, I feel worse cos I'm struggling!!

 

It's a mess!! I'm a mess cos I cant provide!

 

:sad::-( Up2
