after DRO can you start a company?

sadieq

I had a debt relief order in April 2010.
It helped me start over, but at the time I was not thinking of the future, just of surviving as a lone parent.
I am a single mother to 4 children and because of all the government changes, I have decided to try to get back to work sooner rather than wait for my youngest to reach 5, he is 2.5yrs old.
In September my 4yr old starts full time school along with the older two, so it was just sorting childcare for my youngest.
I have found a pre-school and sorted it all out, but now comes the crunch.

I want to set up as a self employed cleaner, running my own business, is it something I can do, I thought I could but now wondering if I am not allowed to run a business, even though initially it will be just me?

Can anyone advise me please, thanks

Really want to make a difference to our lives.

Yes 12 months after your DRO you can start a company. A DRO is more simple than BR.
