Job Loss Financial Advice

The first thing that most people think when they are made redundant or dismissed is ‘how am I going to cope financially? The prospect of weeks or months without a pay cheque can be terrifying. Your immediate goal is to survive financially as well as emotionally. You may have little or no savings, with children to support and a hefty mortgage to cope with. However, you do have the power to stay in control of your financial situation.
