Hi! My name is Jules, or you may also know me as drag king Dandy Darling. I'm a trans man raising money for my top surgery️‍.

I first came out as trans 8 years ago, and this year was finally approved for HRT on the NHS. This has been life-changing for me and I feel more certain than ever that this surgery is something I want. It would be my dream to get top surgery in my early 30s and every donation means the world to me.

I am unable to cover the costs myself, so I am asking my community for help. I am disabled and unable to work full-time - I am on PIP and UCLWRA and I work as a self-employed drag performer. Whenever I have extra income, I try to save what I can. I come from a working class, low-income family and I'm estranged from one of my parents, so my family cannot financially support me.

I have multiple disabilities including a connective tissue disorder which causes me constant chronic pain and fatigue. Binding too often causes me pain, breathing difficulties and skin irritation and I want to be able to feel comfortable existing in my own body.

Thank you for reading x
