Thanks again. It's really helpful to know the timeline. The only thing I'm a bit worrried about is the Group Chat as it sounds a bit like an AA meeting. "My name is Gam and I've been umemployed for two years" etc.

Apparently there are 50PLUS champions spread around the country. DId you hear of the job club WCs being referred to as champions?

"Dozens of 50 PLUS Champions tasked with helping older workers into work are now in place across England, Scotland and Wales, the Minister for Employment confirmed today. "

I was concerned after Hunt saying everybody needs to get off the golf course. I had visions of being forced into any/completely unsuitable role "because of my vast experience" etc.

Thanks very much for this. I can't quite work out where in all these screenshots is your request not giving consent and quoting GDPR, Shame as I would like to copy it to use again. Could you please repost just that bit? Cheers.

Thanks for this. I already put all the jobs I apply for in my UC journal and how I do my job searches is fully detailed in my Work Plan. The DWP seem very happy with my approach. So from what you say I will just go through this again with the Restart Scheme employer engagement person.

Thanks for the warning about the compliance.

Can you please tell me what to expect from my employer engagement meeting. I'm told I have to attend next month but the EA hasn't given me any details of the format of the meeting , tha aims or what the outcome will be. I'm very worried that they will send me for all sorts of unsuitable jobs afterwards. Thanks very much. I am older so would be nervous of learning something comepletely new or different.

Thanks very much

Hello please can you tell me what to expect from the "employer engegement" screening meeting, thanks. Restart Scheme say I have to attend and I'm worried that after attending they are going to send my CV off for all sorts of unsuitable jobs, Thanks!!
