Due to claim JSA for the first time - advice?

93123

I have Asperger's and Dyspraxia which limits my ability to do jobs such as shop work etc (I think I can cope with SOME interaction with customers, but a job where I'd have to continually face them would be too much, as would anything involving heavy physical work or a lot of standing/walking due to hypotonia and flat feet) The only jobs I can think of that I'd be comfortable doing are admin/computing-based jobs, with some telephone and occasional customer interaction involved. How will the job centre treat this? I'm on DLA (low mobility and care)

You disabilities will be taken into account when they draw up your jobseekers agreement, most JCPs also have a specialist Disability Employment Adviser who can give you best advice about how to go about looking for certain jobs etc.
