As autonomous bodies, universities are responsible for providing support to help their students succeed in their studies. <\/strong><\/p>

<\/p>

<\/strong><\/p>

<\/p>

Universities charging above the basic fee level (£6,000 for full time students) must also agree an access agreement with the Office for Fair Access (OFFA) setting out what more they will do to widen participation and help students to succeed with their studies. In its latest guidance, OFFA specifies young carers as a group whose needs universities should consider.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

Carers Trust and the National Network of Universities Supporting Young Adult Carers have produced a resource \u201cSupporting Students with caring responsibilities: ideas and practice for universities to help student carers access and succeed in Higher Education.\u201d <\/em>The Trust and the Network are holding an event on 24th<\/sup> April to help universities to support students with caring responsibilities through the student lifecycle.<\/p>
