So I took to JustGiving 2 years ago when I first accepted my place at CPA Studios, now sadly just weeks before I was going to start my final year of training the college CLOSED after suffering from financial troubles. The news left all students and faculty devasted and I cannot thank everyone at CPA enough for the wonderful two years I’ve had! Anyone who knows me knows how highly I spoke of the college, the training and the incredible people I met during my time there.

However all this aside I’m really excited to say that I have been offered a place in the 3rd year of Masters Performing Arts College, where I can complete my training and get the same creditied qualification I would have done at CPA Studios. Unfortunately no move is without is complications... Masters is an hour commute from Romford (where I have just signed a 12 month contract from my accommodation) which is includes travel costs I have no space for in my outgoings, especially now I am not going to be able to work after college hours as I wont be getting home until half 7/8pm. Being self dependent this will make keeping up with my outgoings difficult enough.

On top of this my Loan Provider is threatening to pull my Career and Development Loan which is my only means of paying my fees. However I am taking the necessary steps and I have sent a letter appealing my change in college and am confident it will come through with the desired answer!

The target I have set is just a number, any contribute would be MASSIVELY appreciated as I have loved and learnt so much these past 2 years and do not wish to stop now! Thank you so much to anyone who has taken the time to read this and I hope to be posting pictures and videos of my final year if training very soon!!

Lots and Lots Of Love, Caitlyn!🎭🤩
