Open Q&A

Speaker Bio: Steve Hewitt is a trustee of Ruth Hayman Trust, a small grant-giving body that supports adults across the UK whose first language isn’t English with fees for education. The vast majority of grants are made to those seeking sanctuary. Steve has worked with English Further Education funding and eligibility for over twenty years and is regarded as an expert in the field, presenting on the ETF Leading From The Middle programme, advising colleagues across the country, and, occasionally, appearing on his own YouTube channel.

Students with a sanctuary-seeking background will share their experience of accessing further education.
