Young Somerset Supported Internships
Young Somerset have partnered with Somerset Skills and Learning to provide Supported Internship opportunities for young people aged 16 to 25 with an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP).
Supported internships in the UK are designed for young people aged 16 to 24 who have learning difficulties or disabilities and need extra support to move into employment.
The Supported Internship is divided into:
- Work experience alongside your work coach (4 days a week) and
- Learning with a dedicated tutor (1 day a week)
Supported internships help interns develop the transferrable skills and knowledge needed for a paid job and can also improve confidence, self-esteem, wellbeing, and social life.
