    What are you going to do at uni?

    And it depends what you are looking for. Things like playschemes, summer camps etc are always looking for staff over the summer holiday. You could sign up with a temping agency, generally the sooner you do it the better, so sign up over Easter even if you don't want any work until after your A levels.

    If you're after work experience and have any idea of what you might want to do when you graduate then start writing to companies asking if they'll have you for work experience.

    Hi there, welcome to TheSite :wave:

    It might be worth writing to a few companies you'd be interested in doing work experience with - the earlier the better.

    Here are some other websites you might find useful:

    www.summerjobs4students.co.uk

    www.do-it.org.uk - TheSite.org's sister website which has a database of volunteering opportunities

    www.ccusa.com

    www.campamerica.co.uk

    www.bunac.org

    YMCA

    Good luck finding something :)
