Having been down this route several years ago (not with Caroline) agree that it is v.v. expensive. Unless the money at stake is ????KKKK it's cheaper in the long run to walk away, head held high. That's what I did and do not regret it. :)

Have a look at both your home buildings and contents insurance cover, some policies include insurance for legal action during redundancy.


Also are you aware of / in touch with anyone who has taken legal action against your employer; often good to use their solicitor who has experience of the employer. Good luck.

Also, am sure you have done this, but look for resources online that might arm you with sufficient information to ask questions of your employer. Certainly if you are being made redundant etc. you will have information rights at the very least and if you can clearly articulate these you'll be on a better footing. See for instance https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/work/rights-at-work/basic-rights-at-work/ and http://www.acas.org.uk/index.aspx?articleid=4663. Also, of course, read your contract and any terms and conditions attached to the contract. Good luck!

Hi, I'm an employment lawyer currently on garden leave but my firm is likely to

be able to assist. They're called Lyons Davidson Solicitors. It sounds pretty straightforward as you are essentially looking for someone to advise you on the terms of a settlement agreement.


Here's the link for the firm

    • https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.          
    • Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068. 
    • Colin.    One for the old school.   Just saying.
