Year 10 work experience

I am looking for year 10 work experience in the legal sector or marine biology/conservation. It has been ver difficult to find any places in my local area (West Midlands) which offer these opportunities to people my age. Any places or tips?

Have you tried contacting the work experience/careers advisor/teacher in your school?

I have emailed my school's consultant for work experience, however it is the school holiday and IDK if they have any contacats in this sector. I also haven't got a reply as I emailed him on a Saturday

Thx. I have contacted magistrates court reporter from the Birmingham Live and the Express and Star to see if I could shadow them but I will also contact people from the crown court/magistrates court. re local nature reserves, I have emailed the sandwell valley rspb as well as the national trust, woodlands trust, birmingham botanical gardens, birmingham and black country wildlife trust, birmingham wildlife centre, winterbourne house and gardens, the environment agency and friends of the earth and am waiting for a reply. For the law, I have contacted the west midlands police to see if I can shadow a pcso or smthn.
