Petition Continue student funding for students over 60 from 2025

Allow over 60s to access the £37,000 lifelong learning fund re the new student funding rules proposed from 2025. It seems discriminatory to not allow over 60s to access education funding, especially if they have never had any student funding before.

More details

With an ever increasing focus on brain degenerative diseases such as Alzheimers, student funding should be available for the over 60s and education at any age should be encouraged.
