2nd Year Dental Tech Student Looking for Weekend Lab Experience in London

Hey I could really use some advice, help.

I have been working in a dental lab for 2 years as an admin/stores assistant and I was given the opportunity to study dental tech 1 day a week while working 4 days in the lab. I am now in my 2nd year.

The problem is that my role is still mainly admin, so I have not had much hands on technical experience. They are happy for me to go to college, but it looks like they are also happy to keep me in the storeroom 😅 I am currently learning exocad and 3shape and I want really get some actual exposure, especially in a digital lab doing crown and bridge, implants, etc.

i am looking for unpaid weekend work experience in London. I really don't mind what I do. I will help with anything. I just need the exposure and the chance to learn from technicians. And quitting this isn't really an option because they are paying me while I attend college so I am trying to find something I can do alongside it.

If anyone knows a lab or technicians in London who might be willing to take me on at weekends, I would really appreciate it.
