Description of work area
Internships in Social Care and Youth Work are usually for students who are studying or who have graduated from social work training.
There can however, be opportunities in this field for someone considering a career within social care but who have not yet embarked upon a path of study. An internship can be a good way to gain some working knowledge and experience before deciding if this is the right career path for you. It is also an excellent way to gain some on the job skills and confidence after or during a period of study and before entering the work force.

thankyou

I could do several things with the kids all by myself. Especially my group gave me the feeling to be a full member of staff and not just an intern.
Any advice for future interns: Try to involve yourself the most as possible and try to do your best the whole time because they really appreciate to see you being involved.

I liked the staff and kids there . Sometimes felt like quite long hours though.
Celine E
I gained a lot of useful experience while working with children at this nursery.
Any advice for future interns: get in touch with your host family before you arrive.
Alexander M
I loved that i was able to meet so many amazing people and work with the youth project-they are amazing.
Any advice for future interns: Be open and do things even if they seem scary at first and require a lot of work. In the end it will be worth it!
