work from home

hi everyone. since i lost my ESA i have been on job seekers. i am struggling to get a job and feel it would be better due to my disability to work from home. i need to be able to move around regularly due to my spina bifida and arthritis i also have to make regular trips to the toilet as i have incontinence problems. i also have hydrochephalus which also makes it hard to work as i regularly loose concentration and my co-ordination is poor. can anyone give me any advice. there seem to be lots of work from home scams out there.

I also have the same problem as I am limited in the kind of work, due to disability and how my age affects it. In essence, I need a sit down job. I also do not have the money to retrain.

Hi @deb74 & @Geniedebs , it can be a minefield looking for reputable 'work from home' opportunities online, although they do actually exist. As a rule of thumb, you should NEVER part with any money if asked by any of these firms online - for DBS checks, admin fees or ANYTHING. If it seems too good to be true, it usually is. At Scope's Support to Work we have supported people working from home.

You could always refer yourself to our service for the best advice, guidance and information to support you into the employment you are looking for..

If you would like to find out more about the service, you can give us a call on 0300 222 5742; email us at supporttowork@scope.org.uk or register your details HERE and a member of the team will get in touch with you soon!
