Cost of SU Internship
This post is voluntary, although we will reimburse your work related expenses.
The Internship will cost £1000. We ask for £500 of this amount to be given to SU before the programme begins with the rest being given throughout the year.
Let’s Break It Down
We encourage you to raise £500 personally. Involve your local church in this decision in asking for their prayerful and financial support. As a part of raising this we will encourage you to run one Fundraiser at some point during your internship.
We don’t want cost to be a stumbling block to you saying yes to this internship. There are lots of ways you can fundraise throughout your year. If the cost is an issue why not contact us.
Important Information
Please note that this internship position will require you to be able to provide your own transport (by means of public transport or access to a car).
The majority of your first month will be based in our Belfast office due to induction and training, which means on those days you will need to make your own way to the SUNI office.
Unfortunately SU is not in a position to offer accommodation.
