Hotel workers displaced by the Claremont Hotel fire are being offered free advice and employment support on Wednesday 22 January.

Help is available from 10am until 1pm at People Matter’s offices, 6 Saffrons Road, Eastbourne (just behind the town hall).

No appointments are necessary and the support is available not only for Claremont employees, but for any worker from surrounding business affected by the blaze. Help will include a range of free advice and services from CV writing and confidence-building courses to job-matching with potential employers. Advisors from Jobcentre Plus will also be on hand to help, along with a representative of the Citizen’s Advice Bureau.
