I work as a HCA for the NHS, have half been thinking of doing the nursing degree - I enjoy the job, I really do, but have friends who are qualified nurses for who it is still a real struggle just to live. So am questioning whether I want to do 3 years of training to only be in a slightly better off position, if that makes sense. At the moment every month is a bit of a struggle and my husband and I both work full time, we just about manage to pay the bills but not a lot left!
I have already got a degree (English) as I wanted to teach but realised I hated working in a school.
There aren't huge employment opportunities where I live, mainly care work or seasonal. Moving not an option really, I just feel a bit stuck! What would you do?
