The accountant who drops off Deliveroo orders on his ride home. The teacher who sidelines as a nail artist. The art curator walking dogs in her lunchbreak.
These are just some of the thousands of Londoners who’ve taken up a side hustle to earn some extra cash amid the ongoing cost-of-living crisis and the new alarming unemployment figures. According to a recent study, more than 10 million Brits are considering taking a second or even a third job to make ends meet, with Google searches for “side hustle” rocketing by 58 per cent over the last year. Last month, there were 26,000 side hustle searches in the UK alone.
