Getting back to work

After cancer, I am disabled and on benefits. Mainly housebound, I thought I would like to start up a website to occupy my brain, try and get back to work, and get off benefits. A frien set this up, I have twice been made Cancer blog of the year, and get from 1,000 - 2,000 hits a day.
Now I think I could make money from the site by offering Affiliate programmes with suitable products that are coming in to Britain developed with other countries' cancer associations.
But I need someone who can tell me how to set this up (I already have a New Zealand company who have asked if I would be interested). The Job Centre is dis-interested, I get the impression they would prefer I stayed on benefits so do you know who might help me set this up please?

Hi @veriterc. You might find some sources of help on our self-employment page.
Or you could try asking on LinkedIn? Best wishes, Alex
