The government is committed to supporting working families and ensuring they retain more of what they earn. Following increases to the personal allowance threshold and National Living Wage that will come into effect across the UK from April, a full-time worker earning the National Living Wage in Crawley will be taking home over £3,800 more per year after tax compared to a full-time minimum wage worker in 2010.
