Internships - a great opportunity
Who is an intern?
An intern is someone who works in a temporary position with an emphasis on on-the-job training rather than merely employment. Interns are usually students or graduates seeking skills for a new career or experience while volunteering. The smaller size of most charities and their flatter structures means that charity internships expose people to much greater hands-on experience than corporate ones.

Why should I become a charity intern?
All you give is your time in return for great training and experience. You can gain loads of contacts from the corporate and communal partners that most charities have and receive career guidance from experienced professionals in a variety of fields. A charity will let you better explore and display your skills and abilities, and internships sometimes lead to employment as well as important contacts.
What’s in it for the organisation?
Interns can boost your staff numbers and give current stuff much-needed support. They also may offer a fresh dimension or set of skills to your work. You also have the opportunity to nurture a future volunteer or community leader.
