Work experience during Gap year ( need advice asap)

I’m planning to take a gap year after A levels to gain some work experience in marketing , I didn’t apply to apprenticeships in year 13 as I felt as though I didn’t have enough to put on my CV

Does anyone have any suggestions on what I should do apart from M+C Saatchi free bootcamps ?


I’ve asked several people about gaining work experience from their relatives who work in that field but again, they’re unsure whether they would be available.
Additionally- a lot of( and yes i’ve stupidly only realised now) Events/insight days seem to be tailored towards students in full time education
