It is always very difficult to get your foot in the door as employers do tend to look for as much experience as possible - even for more junior roles. I would suggest that you do some voluntary work for a charity and also get as much advice as you can from your careers officer or tutor (if you are studying at a college). If not, I can only recommend that your are very persistent and write to lots of firms in your local area.
All the best in your search!
