EPQ - DD's school doesn't offer them - worth doing independently?

Hi everyone, hope you can help. Encouraged by a friend of mine, DD wants to do a EPQ along with her A levels in the following subjects - Spanish, History and Politics. (Friend's DD went private where EPQ's seem to be standard).
It seems that DD's school doesn't offer them, so I am left with the task of finding a course for her.
DD loves her subjects, and is very diligent, and would actually enjoy the process of writing a mini thesis, so I think it would be a good fit for her, but not sure where to start. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

You can Google online course but it's expensive and not necessary. Focus on getting 3 great a level results instead. Not all private schools offer EPQ's because some schools don't regarded them as the best use of a student's time.
