What the petition asks
Bring back our job center to Darwen which closed early this year without even asking the people of darwen if this was ok
UNEMPLOYED people in parts of East Lancashire will face extra 10 mile round-trips after the Department of Work and Pensions announced it will merge two jobcentres with nearby sites.
As a result of an estates review by the DWP, jobcentres in Green Street, Darwen, and Market Street, Colne, will now be axed.
