Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, Mel Stride said: “A hallmark of a compassionate society is giving those on low incomes the tools to progress and earn more.

“It is important that we continue to deliver targeted support so that those in work have access to the expertise and guidance of our dedicated work coaches.
