Ican't answer yout question regarding being self employed, but I have used
Access to Work for a number of years and one thing I have learnt is that the
quality of assessment can be very poor indeed. You wopuld be better
estab;ishing what equipment you need first, by using support like this list,
then speaking to the assessor. Personally I feel the assesors get money for
old rope, but then I am a cynical old sod these days and not getting any
sweeter with the passing years.
I would be interestd to know how you get on as a self employed user of access
to work though.

Hi Will
I am currently going through that process. What you need to do is contact
your Jobcentre and they should put you in touch with your ATW Advisor. They
then help you make an application and request an assessment be carried out
for what you require. I've just gone through this particular phase, and am
awaiting the report which will determine what, if any equipment, I will
receive. I am lucky in knowing what I require, and where to get it, so that
has helped me and the ATW people. So far, I have to say, everyone has been
extremely supportive and helpful over here.
Kind Regards,

hi all, I have contacted the centre for my area, but as I wish to
become in the future a translator from French to English a braille display
and or notetaker would help with this. Can access to work help those who are
self-employed needing equipment and if so, how?
Thanks, WIll
