I want to start selling my art again… but I’m on UC, PIP & LWCRA….

Janemet

For years I’ve been unwell, I’m on PIP, LWCRA, and a little UC (husband works full time).
When I was in my 20s I was an artist, something I did in my spare time. I’ve found myself drawing again, and people are taking interest. I’m looking at setting up maybe an Etsy shop. And going self employed this way.
Beauty of this is I can work at my own pace, granted if I feel well enough.

what do I do in regards to declaring this? Who do I need to inform as I guess if I’m recieving money, I need to let the likes of UC know? Will my LWCRA and UC stop?
