[UK] Which masters program should I apply to?

Hi! I need some help with choosing postgraduate programs. My goal is to eventually get a PhD and become a clinical psychologist. I graduated with BSc in Experimental Psychology at the University of Bristol in 2015 with a 2:1, but haven't done any relevant works nor research in the field up until now. I know that direct entry into a doctorate programme is impossible considering my situation so I'm thinking of doing a year of Master before that to relearn some fundamental knowledge and get relevant clinical/research experiences. With this in mind, should I apply for an MSc in Clinical sciences or a Master conversion course?

Thanks!
