If you are 19+ and have a household income of less than £22,000 you could be eligible for support with travel, food and study programme essentials. If your household income is between £22,001 and £37,000 you could be eligible for travel funding.*
If you are aged 16-18 and in care, are a care leaver or receive a benefit in your own right, such as Income Support/Universal Credit, please apply for the Learner Support Fund to receive help with the cost of food, travel and study programme essentials.
