Internship Opportunities Gap Year Summer 2020

Hi everyone,

I am looking for internship opportunities in private equity, ideally in London. I am 18 and on a gap year I have previous experience in a hedge fund (AKO Capital) and experience in VC (Balderton)+(VentureSouq 3 months). I understand why there are so few schemes open to gap year students, however I would be grateful if anyone could point me in the direction of possible internships or be willing to host me.
