Answer 1

You are restricted a fair bit.  As you are under sixteen, you are not entitled to minimum wage (£3 and some pennies).  As such, the 'rubbish pay' probably wasn't that bad.  

You can work anywhere that you are not placed in danger (which is seriously restrictive - you cannot lift, carry, push, pull, climb, serve food, et cetera).  You also cannot work before seven in the morning, and after seven at night, whilst in education, unless you are an entertainer/performer (such as an actor or a singer).  

Depending on your spelling, grammar, typing-speed et cetera, you may wish to offer your services as a typist.  However, it's competative, and the chances are they will use the people willing to work for next-to-nothing, and are more experience.

Answer 2

Glass collector, asher upper, porter, waiter - some places will take you.

Best thing to do is ask friends and family if you can do anything and work for cash.

Dog walkings always a good one - put a flyer up in your local shops.

People always want someone to do gardening and lawn mowing.

Make up some flyers of all the things you could do and a reasonable hourly rate and drop it in to neighbors - but be-careful who you do jobs for make sure they are vetted as safe to work for.

You could always do some cooking and make something like cookies, cakes, pickles, chutneys etc and sell on local markets etc

Good luck it's great when people want to earn some cash.

Answer 3

Go washing cars and windows like u said that will get u some money on the go,

Answer 4

Could try your luck at waiting, but your chances aren't good.

Maybe if you get help with an adult and you have some clutter you need to get rid of you could sell it on ebay.
