Work Placements

Whizz-Kidz are proud to announce a range of work placements and internships designed for young wheelchair users in higher and further education.

To date we have supported over 200 young people to gain experience of work and further their career prospects.

This is what some of our previous participants have said:

“What advice would I give someone thinking of doing a Whizz-Kidz Work Placement? I would say go for it as you will probably never get this opportunity again”

“After completing my internship, I am much more confident in myself, gained lots of different skills and met new people. They said if I ever wanted to come back after I had graduated, and work for them, I was definitely welcome.”

Visit our Kidz Unlimited website for advice on choosing a career, and finding a work placement near you.
