Work placements for under 16s

hey everyone
I was wondering if anyone knows if there are any summer work placements/volunteer work places for under 16s? I'm looking to go into medicine.
Thanks a lot

You will struggle to get medical work experience as you are under 16 and most places only allow 16+ placements.

Were there any other areas you would be intrested in?

Oh okay
I don't mind helping disabled people or something related.
I already work at a charity shop though.

As you're under 16, your best bet would be to approach nursing homes and ask if you could spend some time helping out/chatting to the residents etc.

Yup nursing homes are a good idea, also see if there are any special needs clubs you could help out with in the evenings? I started that when I was 15
