Did anyone go back to uni as a single mum and how did you afford it?

I looked into it and with all the grants and UC I could, but I will have around £100pcw to live on for food, petrol, clothing and emergencies.

Or has anyone changed career as a single mum?

I want to get into healthcare but there are so many barriers as I don't have experience and I need to be able to support me and my son.

Im already working part time and hes at nursery, Im also on benefits already too.

Its just impossible but I feel so stuck!! I cant stay in my current job as they cant offer me full time, and any other job in my field requires me to travel into London.
