Hi newbie here,
i was watching GMTV the other day, when Martin Lewis was on
he mentioned that students, who are children of firemen, can claim a grant of some sort or can claim some money
but i had only just heard it for a secon and didnt hear anything else
im currently a student and my father is a fireman
does anyone know anything about this, or if this is true or not, if it is does anyone know how to go about it??
Any help would be much appreciated
many thanks

Try looking through FunderFinder (your careers service should have a copy of the programme - there was talk of it being made available online - not sure if it has yet) - there are lots of little gems like that...April Grocery Challenge £81/£1200

Sadly I'm the wife, rather than daughter of a firefighter (well actually I'm quite happy to be his wife lol), but know a few guys who'd be interested in this. I'll do some searchinghey there's no money but we couldn't be happier if we tried

Sorry, my hunt has come to nothing so far. Would it be worth you mailing Martin since it was him you heard?hey there's no money but we couldn't be happier if we tried
