We are delighted to announce we will be delivering a fourth year of the Internships Work programme.
The Internships Work programme funded by the Department for Education has been extended for a fourth year – now running until March 2026.
Building on the work that began in September 2022, the programme aims to build capacity and improve quality and consistency in supported internships across the country.
Thanks to the commitment of the local authorities and partners, the programme has already achieved substantial results:
The numbers are impressive, but behind every number is a powerful, personal story.
Having done a supported internship with NTH Solutions, Robert shared with us that "Not only has [his supported internship] given me the confidence to go out and achieve, but also has given me the chance to achieve.”
And Layla shared with us that through her supported internship, “I have learned more about myself and found the real me. I’ve improved my communication skills, and I’ve realised that I’m not embarrassed about being autistic.”

This continued investment, delivered through the Internships Work consortium led by NDTi, BASE, and DFN Project Search, is changing the lives of young people in their local areas.
The focus for this additional year will be on sustaining the progress made and strengthening delivery.
We look forward to continuing this vital work in partnership with local authorities, providers, employers, and families to support more young people into meaningful employment.
