The situation at present is difficult, but with support from an adviser some people do achieve their awards so it is worth persisting. Please do let us know how you get on. Anyone who finds themselves in this situation should seek advice. If you are a trade union member, your union can help you with the enforcement process. If not, the Citizens Advice Bureau are a good first point of call. TUC WorkSMART has a search function which enables you to find the best union for you: http://www.worksmart.org.uk/unionfinder/ Citizens Advice provide a postcode search facility to enable you to find your closest bureau: http://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/index/getadvice.htm#searchbox Nicola Sandra,
