At the moment my establishment is doing 4 day working weeks, so every other weekend you get off.

Awesome news pal! You'll smash it no problem!

not long now haha

I have been told you need businesses insurance on your car if your going to bed watches etc

About time TMH. Great news pal

Plus you should be able to claim daily food allowance

Wayhay. They do pay mileage but double check with your establishment which rate to claim. It should be 46p a mile but I've heard some prisons are funny and want you to claim public transport rate which is 25p per mile.

As long you declare it, be 100% honest, show vetting its settled or in the process of being settled, with proof you shouldn't have a problem.

I know mate that was for my 1st choice prison, 2nd choice rung me with 3 weeks to go and I couldn't risk saying no.

Tmh90 hang in there mate, I waited 11 months on the merit list.

congrats Londonlad it is looking good pal

You will get a email saying if you accept the job yes or no, that is basically you agreeing to the contract. As for a paper contract I dont know my start date was March and still waiting haha

you will probably get an email stating time, date, where etc what you need to do/bring to poelt. Thats about it
