This page is for the families of National Youth Choir members who have already been awarded Financial Assistance.

You should have received an email from us telling the level of Financial Assistance we are able to offer you as a percentage. When you go to pay your course fees, this percentage should have already been deducted from your payment total. 

As part of your Financial Assistance award, you can also claim back a portion of the money you have spent on participation costs. This means you can claim back a percentage of your costs for things like travel to courses, concert tickets and your purple polo shirt. 

How to claim back a portion of your costs:

1. Read our Policy for Financial Assistance claims. This tells you exactly which costs can be claimed back and lets you know what kind of receipts you need to provide. If you book something that isn’t covered, it will not be possible to claim back a portion of that cost.

2. Keep receipts from anything you book. To claim back costs, you need to have saved a copy of each receipt. A bank statement cannot be accepted instead of a receipt.  
   
   
3. Fill in the Financial Assistance claim form. The form will ask you to list the details of each cost you are claiming, and include your own back details so we can pay you.
