Can anyone advise on how I might obtain funds to do an Information, Advice, Guidance course.
Currently I claim ESA support group and volunteer at a community project 3 times a week.

Hi @Carolingalong, and welcome to the community! Are you wanting to take the course to help you into employment? I've moved this post to our ask an employment advisor category to see if anybody can offer assistance.

Hi @Carolingalong , there are Professional and Career Development loans , details of which are here https://www.gov.uk/career-development-loans
Being in the ESA support group you might not be eligible for other free funding, that people on Job Seeker's Allowance are eligible for , but it is worth contacting local colleges or training providers who offer the course to see what they can offer.Guy
