Limitless - Work Experience Programme 2026

Our Limitless programme is aimed at students at sixth form or college studying towards higher education such as A‑levels, BTEC, NVQ, International Baccalaureate or Scottish Highers – typically in year 12 or 13 (England and Wales) or S6 (Scotland). Our five‑day programme will introduce you to the workings of a law firm, the role of solicitors, and how central team professionals support the firm as a whole. The next programme will run from 13‑17 July 2026 in our London office and you must be available on all of these dates to attend. Students must live within 1.5 hours’ commute to the London office.
