The Chartwell Trust, a private health company which runs a hospital at Leigh-on-Sea, Essex and care homes is alleged to be charging £500 for a week's work experience for children.
It is alleged that the Chartwell Trust had sent a brochure to local schools mentioning that they were offering “good supervision from staff” and “interview training carried out by our qualified doctors”. The charity, MyBigCareer stated that the fee charged was “completely unfair” and “distasteful”.
