Can I afford university?

Hi Guys,

I recently got made redundant and have been looking for work for months with no success, I'm beginning to feel inadequate. To top it off last week my husband also got made redundant forcing us to have to go onto jobseekers allowance, I've always worked from the day i left school.
I'm having no luck on the job front and was looking into going back to university to study Criminology part time.
What help would I be entitled to assuming my husband stayed home and looked after the children? Is this possible? Or selfish of me? Could we survive financially?
I can't sit at home doing nothing anymore, it's boring and I want to better myself, anyone know what sort of help we'd get?

We are currently getting Full HB and CTB, Child Tax credits, Child Benefit and Jobseekers allowance.

Thanks Guys :-)
