Try your local county council they should be useful, I know a girl that did a month of work with them looking at volatile organic compounds. It was unpaid but still experience. You could also email a university department (e.g. TCD Centre for the Environment) see if they would allow you to get some experience. It's really all up to you so long as you're willing to work without pay.
