Are you, or do you know someone who would benefit from a supported internship?
A supported internship is a real opportunity to step into the world of work with the right support behind you.
Designed for young people aged 16 to 24 with an Education, Health and Care plan, supported internships help you build the skills you need for a job while spending most of your time in a real workplace.
You will not be on your own. A job coach will support you and your employer every step of the way, helping you learn tasks, build confidence, and succeed at work.
Placements usually last 6 to 12 months and are designed to help you move into paid employment at the end.
You could gain experience in areas such as:
• Hospitality, cafés, restaurants, hotels
• Retail and customer service
• Administration and office work
• Horticulture and outdoor roles
• Facilities, maintenance, and cleaning
• Warehouse and stock roles
This is more than work experience. It is a chance to build confidence and independence, learn real skills employers are looking for, understand what a job is really like, and take a step towards paid work.
Most of your learning happens in the workplace, helping you learn by doing and preparing for real employment. If you want to try something new, gain experience, and start your journey into work, this is your opportunity.
