The important aspect of this subject is that YOU need to find a business that will take you on as a work placement volunteer. The best way to go about this is either talk to the boss/manager of an organisation you are associated with from past experience (maybe as a client), or write to each manager asking them to take you on.
Your tutor will talk to you about how to do this.
