ESA question

Ej12

Hi, I need some advice.
I have been on ESA support group, long term.
I have been diagnosed with autism/aspergers and rarely leave the house. I had all but given up on ever being able to work. Through this website I found out about lionbridge and found that this is something I may be able to do.
If I was succeful in applying for this, would it count as permitted work if I kept to the time/pay restrictions from esa.
Of course I would love to be working, but am worried that if I lose my esa claim, and do not get sufficient work with lionbridge, it would be too stressful for me to go through with reapplying for esa.
Any advice would be appreciated

I should think so you can work for no more then 16 hrs and can earn no more the £120 if I'm correct
