Student midwives & nurses: fund childcare & stop treating loans as income for UC
Support student nurses and midwives by allowing them to claim 30 hours free childcare and excluding student loans from Universal Credit (UC). We believe current support isn't enough to live, travel to and park at full-time placements, or care for dependents. Its forcing many to leave their courses.
