Hi there, I have been diagnosed with an early rectal cancer and also kidney cancer. I work fulltime for a small startup business. Unfortunately they had to make 3 people redundant this week, and rumour has it they now only have enough money to pay the rest of us till the end of October. I have to have a TEMS proceedure in 4 weeks then a partial nephrectomy possibly in 8 weeks. I have only worked in my current job for 8 months so would not be entitled to redundancy pay. Could I still claim any help from the government whilst I'm recovering?
Thanks in advance
