Discretionary Support Funds for Learners
If you are 19 or over and having trouble meeting the costs of participating in further education at your college or sixth form, Discretionary Support Funds might be one source of help. The funds are prioritised for those who face financial hardship. They can be used to help with: financial hardship and emergencies, childcare costs (for Ofsted-registered childcare), accommodation costs for those who have to study further than the maximum distance from home, essential course-related equipment, materials and field trips and travel costs (for over 18s). For full details see the attached Directgov web page.
