Clinical Scientists in the NHS are in salary Band 7 (Agenda for Change payscale). The exact amount changes each year but if you look up the AfC bandings you’ll get an idea. I first came through the Scientist Training programme which is paid at Band 6.
As your career progresses you can move up to Bands 8 & 9 (with further qualifications).

I get paid grade 6 at the University of Edinburgh. This starts at about 29k/year full time (35 hours/week). A post doc (the job you can get if you have your PhD) start at grade 7 usually.

PhD students get paid to study, and it’s tax free, which is a small consolation for the fact that most PhD stipends are not very much money.
Bioscience PhD programmes in the UK as of this year mostly get paid between £17,500 and £23,000 per year, depending on who funds you. Some charities pay better than the basic government funding, and if you can get sponsored by a company then often you’ll get paid a bit more.

I also get paid Grade 6 at the University of Edinburgh, which starts around £29,000 per year. For each year you work in that grade, your salary increases a little until you reach the top of your grade.

I make just under £32,000 as a first-year post-doc. This will go up the longer I stay in the position. Salaries vary hugely by location and whether you are in industry or not. Industry salaries tend to be higher but have certain drawbacks which academia doesn’t and vice versa.
