I’m going to be studying a healthcare course. Can I get any extra funding?

Yes. If you’re eligible for full student finance and you’re studying Nursing, Midwifery, Operating Department Practice, Physiotherapy, Radiography or Paramedic Science, you can apply to the NHS Learning Support Fund for a £5,000 Training Grant each year.

If you have a child under 15, you’ll get an additional £2,000 per year. Funding you get from the NHS is non-repayable.
