    Most people work while at uni to keep themselves.

    Has he thought of getting a job?

    I don't know about benefits but it wouldn't hurt for him to get intouch with his local welfare rights or CAB

    He should be able to get a student loan though
    If my typing is pants or I seem partcuarly blunt, please excuse me, it physically hurts to type. :wall: If I seem a bit random and don't make a lot of sense, it may have something to do with the voice recognition software that I'm using!
