I'm really struggling to find a job, there seems to be no jobs in child-care any more. And I am stuck in a dead end job that's going no where and don't have much chance of an increase of hours any time soon but really need a change of job with more hours. I've discussed this with my mum and we think it might be an idea for me to go back to college and do a college course, we've looked at options course options in prospectuses - and one that seems to be interesting me is doing an Apprenticeship in Health and Social care or something similar. The only Issue I have is the problem of affording the course - I'm not receiving any financial benefits from the government as I earn £1.25 over the thresh-hold so cannot get help with the funding for the course, there's an open day coming up in March which I'm going to go to with mum - the only problem I have is funding the course. Is there any sort of funding out there that I could get or apply for ?
