Hi! My name's Leo, you may know me as Leo the artist, that guy that's always at cabaret, or very rarely, from one of my cosplays!

I am currently trying desperately hard to get myself into drama school. I have received a place, on a two year accelerated acting course. And before I accepted that place, I phoned student finance to check if they'd be able to financially support me through my training, and they said of course! They'd be able to give a loan for both Tuition fee and maintenance.

Unfortunately the government was doing what it does best: Lying!

Just over a week ago I received an email saying I will not, in fact, be receiving a tuition loan this year. They informed me of this roughly 40 days before I am due to start my new course.

So, I am now desperately trying to find a way to fund myself for the next year.

Absolutely everything will be going towards my training, and I can promise you, I will not let it go to waste, I will dedicate all of my time and energy to this course, if I get on it.

I will get myself on stage, and I will invite you all to opening night

If by some miracle I managed to raise more than the final goal, any extra funds will go towards the kit that I need, such as uniform, dance shows, additional classes. And then additionally onto mobility aids, as I am physically disabled, and I do have additional needs to the average performance student

Thank you so much for anything you're able to give, I will invite you to a red carpet one day.
