Weeks and weeks of trawling throught the internet looking for employment with in the Passive Fire Protection Sector. To no avail. All I want for my family is a better way of life. England without fail is going to rack and ruin. Anyone got any bright ideas of where to go or any contacts.

I would guess that's going to be a tough one to get into. What about a complete change of work? Surely there's something either you or your wife can do? Maybe even buy a business overseas?

there was a program on bbc2 a few months ago and i beleive it has been repeated recently about a family emigrating to canada. he was something to do with the fire service but didnt have enough points so he managed to slightly change his career by doing a course and became qualified in a different sector. maybe you could do this? sorry i know nothing about your career or whether this is possible. you sound very much like i was a year ago but it does all work out in the end beleive me!
