Medicine, under 15 and work experience?

OK, I'm 15 and am extremely interested in health and medicine. I have been finding it difficult to come up with ideas for work experience. Hospitals only allow over 16s and I'm trying to come up with something original and out of my comfort zone. I was thinking of maybe a dentist, orthodontist or a vet. I also had the idea of a butcher? What message do you think that would put across on my CV? Is a butcher a good idea or extremely strange? Any other ideas? (BTW from Northern Ireland)

volounteering a youth groups are a great idea. in my youth group they have a volounteering group where you are paired as buddy for a young person with autism. it's a great idea to try and get involved in that, imployers and universities love stuff like that. also try get involved in NCS if you can it genuinely does wonders for your uni application if you plan on going. especially for medicine
