Please sign if you agree.I'm a second year mental health nurse. The majority of nurses on my course are mature students with families. Our degree is full time, we study or work on placement for 47 weeks of the year. When on placement we work a 40 hour week whilst writing essays and holding down part time jobs to fund our studies. Without the NHS bursary myself and many of my colleagues would be unable to manage financially.https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/113491
