Hi @Nav_2009 there are a lot of phd students doing physiotherapy who you could try reaching out to. Im not sure if they'd accept but its worth a try, email the universities local to you and ask if there are any ways to get involved in any research or to help out phd students with their thesis. Another and more likely option is to volunteer at local clinics, find out what's nearby and drop by in person or send an email with your proposal.

Hope that helps!

Year 12 work experience is usually for a short period of time (usually a week) and they won't be looking at your qualifications. Search for private physio practices or sports injury clinics in your area and start emailing them. :smile:
