We know that COVID-19 is having a huge impact on our International Tax Affiliates, students, partners and colleagues so we've brought together some sources of support and useful resources for maintaining your wellbeing.
Financial support
International Tax Affiliates
If you have been financially affected by COVID-19, such as a loss of income, you may be eligible to apply for a reduced rate. If eligible, this would allow you to maintain your International Tax Affiliate status while you cannot pay your full subscription fee.
To apply, please email affiliate [at] adit.org with some information about your circumstances, along with any documentation you have in support of your application.
ADIT students
If you are located outside of the UK and you have been financially affected by COVID-19, you may be eligible to apply for the WCTA bursary to help you meet the cost of the ADIT qualification. The bursary is awarded annually to one candidate from disadvantaged backgrounds.
Support and wellbeing
When circumstances feel as if they are spiraling out of control it can be very stressful, but there are resources available to help you manage your anxiety around COVID-19:
- World Health Organisation
- Mind - Coronavirus and your wellbeing
- NHS - Every Mind Matters
- NHS - Relaxation techniques
- Mental Health Foundation - Supporting your mental health while working from home
- Cruse - Coronavirus: coping with bereavement and grief
The links we have provided are mostly to resources provided by UK organisations. If you know of any resources in your area that you think would help support the ADIT community, please share your suggestions with us by emailing info [at] adit.org.
