What type of work experience do we offer?

We offer work experience placements throughout the year; each placement lasts for 5 days, Monday to Friday. You will help and support our Specialist Advanced Training and Dog Welfare Teams. There will be a variety of tasks including kennel duties. Throughout your week, you will also spend time with the Fundraising and People Teams to give you an insight into the ways we work together to transform the lives of people with physical disabilities.


If there are other areas of the charity you would like to complete work experience for, please don't hesitate to get in touch to discuss alternative opportunities. 


When is this available? 

Our placements are available throughout the year. We will try and work around the dates that you request, but we sometimes have to fit in with operational requirements.

To be considered for a work experience placement, you need to have an interest in our charity and want to work and spend time with people and our dogs.

Sometimes we can accept applications from further afield, but you will need to arrange and pay for your own transport and accommodation for the duration of your placement.
