How do I claim expenses for activities while I'm on annual leave/on weekends/bank holidays/other non-working days?

To claim expenses from your study leave budget, you must have submitted a leave request with expenses on Accent Leave Manager. 

For study leave taken over weekends, bank holidays and days when you would not otherwise be working you can either take time off in lieu or not declare those as time off in the application process (by entering 0 for study leave days when submitting the leave request). If you wish to take time in lieu, you must apply for the original leave date (on weekends/bank holidays/non-working days) prospectively on Accent Leave Manager. Arrangements for taking the time off in lieu should be discussed with employers prior to taking the initial study leave.

You can then include your expenses as normal before submitting your application.

Please remember when adding expenses to Accent Leave Manager to click ‘Save’ after entering every line of expenses (even the first one); expenses are not saved until and unless you click the button. To check that the expenses have saved when you’re applying, make sure that the expense appears as a line under Expenses section of the application.
