Can I claim Anything??

On the 17th of last month, I resigned working at my job as a security guard as there was no steady work. (I was only getting a day or two a week).
I use to get 60 hours a week, but the site i was on finished so i was a floater (covering if someone doesn't turn in or on holiday)

I don't know if I can claim anything and I haven't yet tried to.
As I don't know were to start.

I have applied for quite a few jobs. Just waiting on some replies.

I am a bit worried now as my bills are due at the end of the month.

any advice please??
Proud to be dealing with my debts

    How old are you Peter because that makes a bit of a difference.

    First point of call though would be the job centre for JSA. They may sanction you for leaving your job - but if you can prove how little hours they were offering then I can't see the sanction being too long.
