Rejected petition Stop the scrapping of NHS Bursaries for University students starting in 2017/18

Students training in health professions, such as nursing and midwifery, are required to devote many hours to their studies and placements. As a result, many require the NHS Bursary to help pay for their living costs. Without it, these hardworking, selfless students will be left with huge debts.
