“I really appreciate you taking me in and helping me develop my practical skills outside of school. Aqeel and Alec were so supportive in helping me with the charity laptops, and Aqeel even letting me help with a laptop for the air ambulance (that was really fun to help with).

It’s all been a great experience and I hope to come back in October.” – 2025 Work Experience

We are currently full for work experience placements for 2026.
