Penny, VP Education, has cowritten a letter with other Russell Group Presidents asking for more support for PGR students from the Russell Group. The letter asks for increased government funding, improvements to existing funding extension requirements and more public support for PGR students.
We know how much the pandemic has impacted PGR students (along with other students), so it's really important you continue feeding back to your Officers, which directly feeds into action such as this.
You can read the cosigned letter here, and the response of Russell Group here.
