## Resource

The government is rolling out “Support Conversations” to 33 Jobcentres nationwide, offering 40,000 people voluntary, hour-long chats to tackle barriers like debt, housing, skills gaps, and health issues—led by healthcare pros and delivered in person, over phone, or video. Designed to help disabled and ill individuals re-enter work, the initiative builds on early success where participants felt truly heard, all while tackling rising sickness benefit costs and supporting broader employment programs like “Connect to Work” and “WorkWell.” Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
