Hi @JAM29,
You might like to have a look at Scope's Employment Support Services. They can often offer some advice and support on this kind of thing depending on what you're looking for. There's some information about the different services here:
Have you found a job you'd like to apply for or are you just starting to look?

If you're anything like me and got 30 odd years of work experience (most of which is voluntary but it arguably still counts as working), don't list everything as AI CV crawlers don't like it, only go back the last 5 years of your work history.
Also, don't put your date of birth on your CV, especially if you're a bit older (like I'm 50 next week!), it can put some employers off, especially if you have unexplained big gaps in your employment history.
