 I am setting this fundraiser up for Layman because his living situation is no longer safe, and he has been given very little time to leave his home.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 I cannot share the full circumstances publicly, but the situation is extremely serious. Please do not message him asking for details, because this is something he genuinely cannot discuss. He is facing the loss of his home on short notice and is understandably upset, with nowhere else to go and almost no time to find the money needed to secure another place.
</div>
<div>

 The only alternative option currently open to him right now is a hostel. If he goes into hostel accommodation, he will have to give up his dog, Rolo. Those who know Layman will understand how devastating that would be to him. Rolo is Layman’s world and, by his own admission, helped bring him through a very dark place. He is already being forced out of his home. Losing Rolo at the same time is more than he can bear.
</div>
<div>

</div>
<div>
 Those of you who know him, would know he would never want a go fund me for himself unless it was absolutely his last resort. Asking for this amount of money is deeply uncomfortable for him, especially after recently holding a fundraiser for stream equipment. However, this situation came out of nowhere this morning and completely blindsided him. He has been left with no other choice.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 We are hoping to raise £9,000. I know that is a huge ask, especially when other people are struggling. Layman currently has no guarantor, and as a result may have to pay up to a year’s rent in advance to secure a small flat. The landlord cannot hold the property indefinitely, so there is very little time to make this happen.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 If we cannot reach the full amount, anything raised will still go towards finding some kind of safe solution for Layman and Rolo.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 If you can give anything at all, it would mean more than he could properly express. If you cannot donate, please share the fundraiser. Sharing it may help it reach someone who can.

<div>
 Thank you for reading, and God bless.
