Re: where do I start!?

Most Job centres offer career advice, and so do a number of charitable trusts, They might be able to help you organise your mind into what you want to do / are able to do Citizens advice may be able to help,or the thing that used to be learn direct.

I am going through a similar process, but have been off work due to disability.

I started with a list of all the things I'm good at and not so good at. Not job type things the things "they call cross over skills"
organising your family, preparing menus, driving, answering the phone, prioritising,budgeting etc.
EG. if you come out in a cold sweat when you answer the phone you'd be no good in a call centre

hope this helps ( ooohh welcome to the forum by the way forgot to say it earlier, look forward to hearing how you get on)
