JOBSEEKERS in Farnworth will have to travel further to get help with finding work.

The town’s job centre, in King Street, will close next year under Government proposals. It means those looking for employment will have to travel to Bolton town centre.

The Public and Commercial Services union is calling on Department for Work and Pensions to publish the equality analyses it carried out for the site closure, which are currently unavailable for the public to view.

The Farnworth office’s services will be incorporated into the JobCentre Plus centres in Great Moor Street and Black Horse Street.
