in Bookkeeping
I have recently completed the Advanced Certificate in Bookkeeping Level 3 and I am now looking for some hands - on work experience before I can eventually become self employed. I'm looking for a few hours each week which I'm happy to undertake on a voluntary basis.
Does anyone have any help or advice on how I could go about this please? I have approached a couple of local accountants/bookkeepers but unfortunately they don't have anything available at the moment.
Many thanks.

Where are you based @NinaJohnson? Try reaching out to your local branch for support if there's one near you.
There's a good article on the AAT blog too: How to gain experience when you can’t get work experience1 -
Thank you I will take a look at the article.
Can I ask what the local branch is please?
I am based in Leeds, West Yorkshire.

I am interested in gaining voluntary work experience with helping start-ups, people wanting to start their own business, particularly helping them to prepare the financials for a business plan to be discussed with the bank/funding partners. Are there any charities which offer these kind of services?0
