Reporting fraud
We and the Department of Health and Social Care take fraud very seriously. We know most students are honest, but some do make fraudulent claims. We're set on catching these students and taking every step possible to protect public funds.
If you suspect someone of bursary fraud, you can report it on the NHS Counter Fraud Authority website.
