Student carers across Renfrewshire are being urged not to miss out on vital financial support.
-
As thousands of students begin their college or university studies, those with caring roles are being urged to check they're getting all the financial help they’re entitled to.
Around 30,000 unpaid carers are currently studying at Scottish colleges and universities, according to Carers Trust Scotland.
Students face unique challenges, providing emotional, mental or physical support to family members, friends or neighbours whilst juggling lectures, coursework and student life.
Carer Support Payment provides £83.30 per week and is available to many students in education, including those studying full-time.
