Work Experience

Work Experience at Earth Action North Devon is a great way to learn more about careers and the working life within a local environmental charity. You can see how charities like Earth Action North Devon operate and see how we work to have an impact.

We run a Work Experience programme for secondary schools in allocated weeks each year. T ake a look at what week it is in 2026 and what we can offer below. Don’t forget to apply by the closing date if you’re interested - we only have 2 places!
