    My maintenance loan doesn't even cover my rent in London for uni, so I've told my parents to rent out my room at home in Oxford for £600 it's honestly such a godsend because without that cash I would literally not be able to survive on my income and student loan, if your parents agree I would 100% reccomend telling your parents to rent out your room at home, you can just sleep in a guest bedroom or share with your siblings when ur back home for holidays.
