Work experience

I’m hoping to study chemistry at uni and I was wondering if gaining some work experience within the field would be useful for my personal statement and also just my own interest. However, I do have not the faintest idea where I could get this experience, any ideas?

Work experience is always useful and can be good to talk about on personal statements and at interview etc. When you go on to study Chemistry, is there a particular profession you are thinking of pursuing? I'd generally start there and use work experience as an opportunity to see if that profession would be a good fit for you/something you'd enjoy.
