You may be able to obtain a supermarket voucher from Queen Mary if your funds are low, or you are in immediate financial difficulty and unable to afford to buy food, toiletries or other essential items. This can be used at a number of dedicated supermarket stores. Cash funds are not available.
To be considered you must be registered on a course at Queen Mary and have limited access to funds. Each case is considered individually. A voucher is normally for £25 and can be issued once within an academic year.
If you would like to discuss your eligibility for a voucher contact Welfare Advisers in the Advice and Counselling Service. Vouchers are also available via the Student Enquiry Centre, the Bursaries, Grants and Scholarships Office, and QMSU. If you access a supermarket voucher it will be visible to each of the services who are able to issue them.
Vouchers are not a long term solution so if you are experiencing financial difficulty you may want to arrange a confidential appointment with a Welfare Adviser in the Advice and Counselling Service, to discuss your circumstances and options further.
