Cancel all accommodation payments for the January- March university term.
The government should cancel all accommodation fees this term for students- not just those who who can’t return to campus. Student weren’t given the choice to leave.
Reasons to cancel payments:
•Students are not permitted to leave and weren’t given to the option before lockdown started
• overseas students have no other options of accommodation
• people’s families can not afford financial support because of furlough
• students with roles as key workers are still needed to live in halls to go to placements
•students have lost jobs and do not have money for all their provisions
