Any suggestions

[Maureen1one]

Hi all. Have any of you any suggestions or experiences of working from home? I've always worked but have now had to give in as my mobility and pain limits me to be in an actual workplace. However I'm going mad sitting here as my only focus is pain. Money is tight and I would like to earn but can't physically get to work.??

Freelance copy-writing or proof reading. For proof-reading you might need to complete a course to learn how to skim read fast and pick up errors. For copy-writing you need to be able to write to a reasonable standard of English, and be willing to research topics.

Do you have any crafting skills? Is there anything you could make to sell?

What line of work have you done in the past? Could you turn that into a stay-at-home job? For example if you are skilled in computing or accounting you could try helping a small company with their website, SEO is often out-resourced or social media management.

Hope you find something. Good luck

Working from home is great. I don't have any suggestions on what to do, but I work from home and it means you can pace yourself and if you need to lie down for a bit, you can and then continue. I hope you are able to find something you enjoy doing. Go for it. xx

I work for my church and before that I worked for a Christian relief and development agency. I have been very blessed to be able to work from home with flexible hours. xx

I have never worked from home but I do know that you have to be aware of scam sites that want you to pay to register and then offer you work that is so poorly paid it is not worth doing.

If you google "working from home" you will find reputable and well known agencies that could help you.

Good luck!
