Answer:

You could always try becoming an apprentice - you get a job and qualification at the same time :-) www.apprenticeships.org.uk Along side that you can set up your own online business http://www.businesslink.gov.uk. Craft fairs are good for selling art :-)

Your best bet is to get hold of a newspaper or magazine (or website) where the sort of jobs you think you will be interested in are advertised. What qualifications do they ask for? If they all want people with degrees, you'll need a degree.
