Hello!

What university are you going to be studying at? Your best first step would be to research any scholarships and bursaries offered by your university. For example, Lancaster University offers a great £2000 scholarships to students who achieve AAA at A-Level, with other department and personal situation dependent scholarships and bursaries available.

A good website to explore a variety of scholarships, grants and bursaries that you could be eligible for is Blackbullion (Here is an intro: Scholarships, bursaries and grants: what you need to know | Blackbullion)

In addition to UKESF there is the GCHQ bursary (Student Bursary | GCHQ Careers (gchq-careers.co.uk), G-Research scholarship, UKNEST scholarship (UKNEST STEM Scholarships), etc..
There are plenty of "women in STEM" scholarships, if that is applicable to you. (e.g. Amazon Future Engineer| Computer Science bursaries for women studying computer science - Amazon Future Engineer UK)
Research some large companies in your industry area, as some of them provide scholarships and/or bursaries.

Good luck with the search!
