One in four students regularly go without food and other necessities because they cannot afford them, new research has found.
A survey of over 8,000 pupils commissioned by the Russell Group Students’ Unions and carried out by University College London has revealed the immense financial pressure those at some of the UK's top colleges are facing.
Students have cut back on spending, nights out and even considered quitting their education, with 94% of people surveyed concerned with the current cost of living crisis.
Researchers warn young people are being forgotten and will continue to struggle unless more help is given to students by the Government.
