No Kitakyushu University. Not many Cardiff students come now, but a few Oxford Brooks students still come.

Assuming you are Welsh and your eldest is a native or near-native speaker of English, there is likely money out there at private universities. Perhaps not the top universities, but more mid-tier ones that are looking to attract proficient speakers into their programs that emphasize English.
My understanding is that the scholarships available are also partially needs-based. So high-earners may not be able to access any of these funds, despite the English level, GPA etc.
True, many have income caps, however, there are scholarships that are unrelated to income.
