Residents in an area with one of the highest unemployment rates in the country have spoken of feeling “humiliated” and “fighting a losing battle” as they seek to find work.
Gorton has the ninth highest rate of out of work citizens in Britain and the worst in Greater Manchester.
Among the stories residents told were those who have been left homeless by a long-term inability to find employment and some who criticised a lack of support for people who are out of work.
