I've been out of work for 9 years as a sham, I now have 3 kids in school. I would like to retrain as a nurse or a paramedic. I have no maths or science a levels and no money saved up for courses. I need work experience and to start earning but am not sure where to begin.
I am considering care assistant work through an agency and volunteer work with the Red Cross or St. Johns ambulance. Is there anything else I can do temporarily and part time?
Has anyone been in a similar situation and can offer any advice? I want to start a course next September - is that a reasonable expectation? I'm really nervous as I've tried a few changes of career before, been very dependent on DH and now need to make a commitment and make this happen.
