Hello! Here a mama getting back to work after few years( my son has disability). We have been in UC for this few years, my partner is working full time and I will start now part time, my question is we will still receiving some help from uc or it will stop at all?

I am looking for work from home jobs that I can start immediately. Does anyone know any company personally that is hiring? I am really in need one! Thanks x

What side hussles does everyone got going on? What work from home options are there?

I don’t really have people to ask about these things. I’m 20 and this is my first child. I was wondering at what point do you get insurance set up for your child? Do I get it set up before so if they need to spend time in the NICU then it’s covered? How do I go about that?

I’ve sent off form with matb1 form 2weeks ago but not heard anything about it? Do anyone know how to chase them up? As I tried to ring them (num from google) no response.

Hello, I went on maternity leave about 3 weeks ago and still have not received my Edd/disability payment. Anyone else? Is there a delay due to the holiday?

I have been back to work for 3 months and almost every week my daughter is either sick or been sent back home from nursery. I have had tonsillitis myself for almost 3 weeks and I am struggling to cope. Me and my husband both work full time so it’s really tough. Anyone else in the same boat?

This is a vent more than anything really. I didn't go back to work after maternity leave because I hated my workplace. Luckily we can live off my husbands salary but it's tight. I planned on finding another job after summer this year, which I did, but after doing an induction I decided it wasn't the right job for me...

Are there any HR people in this group? My job is currently in Manchester, just as my maternity started I moved back south to be closer to family and have now managed to find a job down here, as they wouldn’t let me work remote it was 2 days per week in the office which just wouldn’t work. I’m due back in January...

I’m due to go back in early feb next year and I’m dreading it. I have no choice but to go back full time and I just feel so guilty leaving my little one😢. No one can look after my little boy how I can and I’m just so anxious about leaving him. How are women supposed to cope with returning to work after having a…

So, baby is due in less than 6 weeks. And I still haven’t filled out my form to claim maternity allowance, purely because I’ve completely forgot about it and I’ve been so ill during pregnancy it’s been the last thing I’ve thought about🙃 just reading all the forms now, and it says if you claim later than 3 months…

If you get 15 hours free (for being on certain benefits) does your child do term time only or do you spread the hours? If you spread the hours over the year do you have to pay? Also can they do less than 15hours if you want them to?
