Your application is important to us and we will do our best to accommodate your request, however we do receive large volumes of applications and can’t accommodate everybody. We will only contact you if you are successful in securing work experience with us. We will do this 2-weeks prior to the start date of your placement. It is not necessary to contact us unless you have any queries regarding the confirmed work experience placement. Please ensure you check your spam box regularly as some of our emails may deliver straight into that folder and subsequently you may miss communications from us.
This application window allows you to apply for placements during March, April, May & June 2025. If you are wanting a placement later in the year, please wait for the next application window in May 2025.
Please be aware that an application for Work Experience does not guarantee a placement, although we will endeavour to support your request.
Please note we do not have any placements available in Blackpool or Flyde at the moment. Please check back at a later date for further updates.
If you are seeking a placement within mental health then please use the Mental health application form.
Information sharing - By completing this form, I agree that my information can be accessed by the Careers Team to facilitate an appropriate Work Experience placement based on my request.
The application window will close on Friday 31st January at 16:00
