I have a small amount of debt that i want to pay off but am struggling to do so...
or more tot he point am sick of it and want to get rid!!
Problem is Im 30 weeks pregnant, with 2 toddlers.

So going and getting a proper job probably isn't an option. (but maybe it is?!)

We are on income support at the moment, so am I right in thinking I can do upto 16 hours of work without affecting that?

I only need to get rid of this debt as we can live OK on the money we have without the payments i have to make.

You can work up to 16 hours but, any money earned over £15pw will be reduced off the amount of Income Support you recieve.

Any Question Answered are recruiting internet researchers. I work for them for an hour or so most evenings and it involves logging onto a database on your computer and then researching the answers to questions sent in by customers. Everything from 'can you recommend a nightclub in Bristol' to 'why is the sky blue?', or 'who invented the catflap?'

It's self-employed work so you can choose your own hours. I don't earn a lot from it (though some researchers work super-fast and do earn a lot), but it's interesting and very good for working round young children because you can do it in short bursts and in the evenings without needing childcare.
