When I was growing up, hardly anyone could type. Now, thanks to computers, everyone can do it. If you’re looking to work from home in hours that suit you, then offering a transcribing service could be what you’re looking for. You’ll not make a fortune, and the work is clearly labour intensive, but it’s a simple and solid opportunity.

A large number of corporations, organisations and media  companies need material converting from audio to the written word. I’ve provided a link  to a UK based company that deal with this sort of thing below. A Google search will throw up other opportunities.
