Hi@mandytech
First of all I like to welcome you to the community!
I am sorry to hear about your situation.
It is something that we often come across but I know from my line of work that it IS possible to secure employment even with employment gaps.
My first thought is your CV.
Is it of good quality or can it be improved?
Do you disclose your disability in the CV?
Do you have the experience/qualifications needed for the roles that you apply for?
There is a few factors to consider when it comes to not getting any interviews and often a lot that we can do to improve our changes of getting interviews.
If you think that it could be beneficial for you to use the support that we can offer at Support to work please feel welcome to register with us at:

I wish you all the best
Kind Regards
