Where can I get a job (not a paper route)?

I am 14 and I live in Essex. Has anyone got any ideas where I can get a job? Not a paper round as they are very rare to get. Thank you.

Hi lennon!

A good answer was given by warlock for the same question:

Businesses that often employ teenagers include:

-Child care centers
-Summer camps
-Veterinary clinics
-Restaurants
-Fast food places
-Newspapers (delivery routes)
-Parks and pools (lifeguarding)
-Golf courses (caddying)
You can also make money without working for someone else. Start your own part-time business. Here are a few ideas:

-Tutor a fellow classmate in one of your best subjects
-Babysit
-Mow lawns in summer, shovel walks and driveways in winter
-Pet sit for neighbors on vacation or walk dogs
-Assist with gardening or lawn care (mowing, weeding)
-Detail cars
-Type school papers for other students
-Clean houses
-Use your computer expertise to help other students or adults
-Be a mother's helper or nanny for a busy mom
-Plant a garden and sell your produce to neighbors
-Sell baked goods to neighbors or at a local farmers market
-Start your own DJ business
-Be a mother's helper or part-time nanny
-Make baked goods and sell them at a local farmers' market.

Type up a flyer about your services and distribute copies to houses in your neighborhood or surrounding area.

Well, this is a way to make money, though not a job. If you want, you can have a bake sale. I don't mean bake some goodies, then open up something. What you can do is this: About a week or maybe more before you decide to have it, put signs near a main road that say the time and date you plan to have it, directing you into your neighborhood. You can post/distribute flyers too, but be prepared to sell lots, because you never know. Anyways, that just a little thing to get money.

Note: another way is to book a location at a local farmers market and sell stuff, as prkswllflwr said.
