Hello all, I have a query, one the DWP staff can't seem to answer, check the internet is what they say. No information of any depth.
I'm bi-polar, I get all of the support allowances for it, up to severely disabled. As a hobby I have printed my own T-shirts, with my own art. I wondering is there any route to try and turn this into some kind of p/time work. I can work the hours I want, at home.
This could be either self employed or running a small company with me as sole owner/ director. [Yes, I have been asked Why bother]
Dealing with the Job Center is like dancing in a mine field with a blind fold on. I only want to go there when I have a plan.
Being told you are unemployable, does not stop me wanting to work, or at least try. The idea is to build a job around my mental health issues, not try and bend them to the needs of others.
Any help or advice is welcome.
Many Thanks
