Self-employment is at a record high, according to the latest figures from the Office for National Statistics. 4.66m people work for themselves, making up 15% of the workforce.

Perhaps you're one of them.

Let us know what it's like to be self-employed. E mail moneybox@bbc.co.uk. Or ring 03 700 100 444 on Wednesday from 1pm.

Do you feel you get enough support, advice, protection from the State, financial institutions, the law?

A recent Government-commissioned report recommended extending state support to include starting or extending a family, increasing the flexibility and availability of mortgages, pensions and insurance, as well as introducing clarity over a legal definition of 'self-employed'. What do you think?

And what does the boom in self-employment say about our economy or how we value our workers? Is it sustainable? Get in touch.
