Intern Aware is a campaign focusing on promoting fair access to the internship system.
Access to internships is unequal and unfair. By refusing to pay interns a wage, many people are being excluded from accessing the opportunities which would allow them to get the jobs they deserve.
Bringing people together from across the UK, we are leading the fight for real change. Our main objective is making sure that interns are paid at least the minimum wage and we are pressuring the government to remove the loopholes that allow companies to pay interns nothing.
