[ilovemarkb]

.ll try to this breif! Im thinking of doing a 3 year diploma in adult nursing, but have no idea how much the bursary is. I have three children and my partner who only works part time due to some health problems. At the moment we just to say manage finacially with the help of child/tax credits. Im concerned that we wont be able to manage if i were to do the nurse traing. Any help anyone??? thanks julie

my friend is doing that course and im sure she said its a non means tested bursury of �5000 a year. If you have children i think you get a dependents allowance too. good luck with your course
