Jobless climate

Many young residents in a Surrey town were left in turmoil after a job drought. Teenagers in redhill were distraught when their town was announced to be worst hit with the recession. Workers were made redundant meaning everyone was fighting for any last-remaining jobs going.
Louisa Welman, 19 of Redhill, said: "This current time is horrible. Since I left school, all I wanted was job as I didn't want to go to college. But it looks like I might just need to. There is just nothing out here, even in nearby Horley. The country needs to sort it out."

With the recession hitting the whole of the United Kingdom back in 2009, people were losing their jobs by the thousands. This saw the redundancy rate hit records levels with the numbers being in the tens of thousands.
Welman also stated: "I just hope Redhill recovers well so I can fund my young son's future as I hate relying on benefits."
