Looking for Funding?

Here is some information that you may find useful...

Many clients who attend our phlebotomy/venepuncture and cannulation courses have found funding from one place or another. Below is some information on companies that have supplied funding to our clients. Although we cannot guarantee that these companies will be able to offer you financial support, as our venepuncture courses are all educationally backed and accredited, they are recognised by these companies.

Job Centre Plus

Job Centre Plus have offered 100% funding to many of our clients. Although the Job Centre Plus website isn't very helpful in directing you towards finding funding, if you visit your local Job Centre Plus and explain that you are wishing to attend our course, they will let you know if there is funding available for you. You are likely to be eligible if:

• You are a single parent (See your lone parent advisor)
• You are currently claiming jobseekers allowance (especially if you are aged 18-24)

Train To Gain

Train to gain are a government group who offer support to businesses wishing to put their employees through training and development. Visit the Train To Gain website for more details on whether your staff would be eligible.

A4e

A4e are an extremely helpful company that can clarify what grants you may or may not be entitled to. They have helped to source funding for a few of our clients now, so they are worth getting in touch with if you are currently out of work.

Other Options

Other companies that offer financial support include ShawTrust and Working Links. Most successful applicants are unemployed, claiming benefits, parents, or people with a disability.
