The cost of living is dominating the headlines. Inflation has risen to a 40-year high, with energy and food prices soaring. According to recent data by the National Union of Students (NUS), a third of students are living on less than £50 a month after paying their rent and bills. Barry, who studies at St Andrews University, is one of many young people struggling with the cost of living. He has been working full time in-between his studies to make enough money, meaning less time for his uni work. He’s meeting Amy who got her degree at Bangor university during the 2008 recession. She shares her experiences to help Barry get through his last year of studying. Presenter: Rachel Stonehouse Producer: Georgia Coan Editor: Clare Fordham
