I don't know, but I suspect that to be true. I have a friend who has no physical or mental handicap and lives on the dole. She always has. She visits here for 30 days every year. It may not be easy, but she manages.
We have to separate temporary unemployment assistance from welfare though. I don't know if there are different programs in GB like we have here.
