There may be time when you find yourself out of work for a while and are in quick need of an income. You could sign up to a temping recruitment agency who will often find you work for the next day or so but you have to be flexible, ideally need your own transport and be willing to change jobs on a daily basis if needed. You may also find that they take a large cut of your money.

If you have friends that have their own businesses it is always worth asking if they have anything work that you may be able to help them with. If they work in the construction industry or similar then you may be able to help labour for them or if it is more office based work then they may be able to find you some admin work that you could assist with.

Social media is a great place to post if you are looking for local work. You can put it on local community pages as well as sharing it with your friends and family. You may be surprised as to how many people have got work this way.
