The story has generated an excellent response, with 1400 comments added to the site, and a discussion on Twitter and Facebook.

beautifully appointed Ms. Grumpy Hat retweeted this blogpost of September, the effort for the good - the forced labor of any other name, he warned:

... many examples of work for the good I've heard so far have been building skills, confidence and self esteem that you can get.

The problem arises because the "strength" of the work of nature. Enable an applicant to find volunteer work at any stage of your claim, in an area that want to gain experience would be a start to give the option most demanding in this regard.

Unfortunately, it seems, those who want to volunteer, in the true sense of the word, face multiple barriers in the system of benefits to doing so. The amazing thing is the threat of losing the advantage that the receiver can not be actively looking for work or who may be regarded as doing work that should be to get a salary. Although the site on volunteering Directgov suggests that you can volunteer or as little as you like, in practice it seems to be very different.
