Work Experience

We regularly take people on as part of various Work Experience programmes and have the required insurance for this. We have people from schools, colleges and various training centres and the length of time can be from a day to many months. The main thing is to remember that our busiest period is during the evenings and weekend, so to get the best "work experience" you really need to attend during these times. Most schools are OK with this as long as the student's parents are OK. For training organisations where attendees are usually over 18, this is often down to the discretion of the attendee. As a guideline we generally suggest working from 1700 - 2300, although this can be altered to suit and is also subject to us being open!!

This also means that if you wish to attend as part of a school program, but we can't offer you your normal week, you can in theory come after school in a week we can offer - again this is generally down to the school and parents to agree, but as we often have lots of requests that coincide this is a handy way around it.
