What the petition asks
University students are seeing high increases in rent prices. However, student finance, that is meant to help with housing, utilities and food, is not always enough to support students financially. We want the Government to increase student finance to a greater extent.
The Government should increase support for students because we are the future of the country. We are the young adults who are going to be working towards cures, entertainment, education, health services etc. Some students are stressing out over whether they can afford travelling to university, in addition to food, accommodation and medication.
