What the petition asks

Reimbursement of university Maintenance Loans currently paying for accommodation students are no longer residing in due to COVID19 .
Reimbursement of finances paid for university accommodation students can no longer attend. Maintenance Loans are to help students survive whilst attending university. Most students a currently, due to COVID19, residing with family or friends, and, because their finances are tied up in paying for university accommodation, have no finances to support themselves. Family and friends accommodating the students are already experiencing extreme financial hardship due to COVID19 but are also having to support the students.
