    Agree w/ getmore re the stat red calcs ... I had it at £5K assuming OP was 41> start date. I'd also allowed some PILON and fact that many councils I've dealt with appear to be a wee bit more generous re red'y packages, in particular if one considered a vol redundancy scenario. Even then my £8K figure may have been OTT, but say £6-7K may be a realistic compromise.

    Based on the above Lioness may well be (even) better off financially to twist, but it's not without risks.

    Be nice to hear back what decision the OP came to, and what were the key deciding factors.

    I guess many give full pay rather than the current cap £464pw. and some jobs may have even better terms.

    Could you take a 1 year career break OP?

    That is not a bad idea....I'll have to make some enquiries.

    I will update the thread once the decision is made
