- The worst things about workington is the councils ability to revamp the town with big shops, so we all spend on meaningless shite. And there inability to provide its people with a real culture that isn't pub or rugby orientated.The worst thing ever about workington, is the fact our children have no real youth service. From the age of 14 they know they might get the odd trip to blackpool. once they leave school it's right to the fish factory door for most.NO OPPERTUNITIES.P.S Only drama and dance school for miles costs £40 per month for 2hrs per week.
