      That wouldn’t be up to me sadly, I suggest trying to get in contact with your nearest university and finding out who does their outreach (we have had a-level students before so places can do it you just need to ask!). Otherwise I suggest Open Days at whatever universities you can get to!

      Hi
      We take summer interns here, but all places for summer 2016 are assigned. Drop me an email in March 2017 about summer 2017 placements.
      There are very few places – please look at the Nuffield schemes to fund such activity.

      Would second the comments already made – contact the university directly, and the link for Nuffield is:

      Unfortunately we don’t take volunteers unless you are doing a degree. However, if you come to an open day, my lab is the one they show 😀 so you would definitely get a tour and you could wave at me if you spot me so I could come and chat 😀
