If hospital's have restrictions on under 18's doing volunteering you could try places such as children's centres or nurseries. Alternatively you could go to the opposite end of the age range and look at nursing / residential homes

 

You can search for volunteering opportunities at http://www.do-it.org.uk/

My sister did a nursing degree many years ago, at the same age she volunteered at St Lukes hospice. Might be worth a try?

I'd say so. Ask in a few charity shops for details.
