University students in Paisley staged a demonstration calling on more support during the cost-of-living crisis amid claims that some are unable to afford to study and feed their families.
Gathering outside the High Street entrance to the University of the West of Scotland (UWS) in Paisley on Tuesday, before marching down to the library on Storie Street, learners called for an emergency cost-of-living grant to be paid to those struggling with their finances.
Daniel Lachlan, who studies psychology at the uni, told the Paisley Daily Express that, in his role as organiser with UWS Socialist Students, he has been contacted by other people trying to find out what help is available amid dire circumstances for students.
