Redundancy support event for former Woods employees
As a major local employer goes into administration, Perth and Kinross Council have set up a drop-in redundancy support event. Print business Woods - a fixture in Perth for 200 years - announced the loss of jobs in early June. The help event will bring together a number of support agencies offering benefits and financial advice along with career guidance. Any available information on alternative employment opportunities will also be offered. It will take place on Wednesday from 10 o'clock until 3 in the Salutation Hotel.
