Does anyone know of any courses in the Essex/London area that I can go onto improve my social skills as I think my social skills are severely lacking and I think that going on such course will improve my performance in job interviews

There are psychiatrists who will do what is called "cognitive therapy" or "behavior modification" sessions with you. It's expensive, though.
