Timpson’s Offering Free Dry Cleaning To Unemployed Jobseekers

January 13, 2015

I’m sharing this for what it’s worth. If nothing else it’s a high street chain trying to help by offering a service that may be useful.

Do you think it will make any difference?

 

Firm ‪#‎Timpson‬ offering free ‪#‎drycleaning‬ for ‪#‎unemployed‬ ‪#‎jobseekers‬

The High Street chain Timpson is offering to dry clean suits for unemployed people for nothing. It hopes this will help them succeed in ‪#‎JobInterviews‬

Getting suits dry cleaned usually costs in the vicinity of £10, which can be prohibitive for unemployed people looking to return to ‪#‎work‬.

The Timpson chain, which also offers key-cutting and shoe repairs, has put up posters outside its stores proclaiming: “If you are unemployed and need an outfit cleaned for an interview, we will clean it for free.”

Timpson, which started in Manchester in 1865 and now has 1,395 stores around the UK, is not asking people to prove they are unemployed to get the free drycleaning.

    does it hinge on a nice dry cleaned suit? probably not. Nice of them though, they are at least are doing something to help unemployed people, which is more than can be said for the DWP
