Hi, I am Rachel- employment support

Trying to put my life back together after my husband of 34 years ran of with his marriage counselor.
Would love to find a job, but being disabled puts a lot of employers of. Any tips on how to get back in the job market? I love office work. But twice now after a long interview at the job centre, they tell me that DLA was invented for 'people like me'???

I am sorry to hear about your personal circumstances, and hope that things will brighten up for you.
The good thing is that you seem to be very motivated to find yourself back in work, and that's a positive start.
Being a disabled person doesn't make it impossible to find work, although it might be more challenging.
