The NHS Wales Student Award Unit implements the NHS Wales Bursary Schemes, which provides funding for healthcare students on NHS funded courses in Wales and Welsh domiciled medical and dental students within the UK.
If you are considering a professional career in health care and would like to know more about the financial support you will get during your training, then the following information is for you. This guidance cannot cover all individual circumstances, and you may need to get more details from the institution where you plan to study.
Note: The NHS Wales Childcare Allowance is based on 85% of the actual registered or approved childcare costs up to a maximum amount. For one child the maximum payable is £126.65 per week. For two or more children the maximum payable is £209.95 per week. However, every childcare allowance is calculated individually and the amount awarded will depend on your circumstances and the income available to you and your family.
