Two self-described "clairvoyants" have been given £4,500 by a Department for Work and Pensions job creation scheme. They will use this money to train bereaved persons to contact their dead relatives.Mr. Rees defended their acceptance of the funds: 'People who feel their tax money has been wasted should remember that if they'd lost a child they would go to a medium to get peace that their loved one has passed safely and is in a better place.
The couple, who have been working as mediums for five years, admitted they were surprised to get the Want2Work grant aimed at setting up new businesses.
