Story

Hi!  My name is Aaron and I've always loved a little fancy dress.  One day I joked that I liked it so much I should do it full time.  A friend suggested that I should and raise money for charity at the same time.  As I was also trying to think of a way to raise money for MindOut, "My Costume Drama" was born.

The challenge is to wear nothing but fancy dress for a whole year.  Sounds simple, right?  I thought so too, but think of everything you do in a year... work, shopping, a holiday, perhaps even a wedding or a job interview?  Still sound easy?  Perhaps not so much, but that's what I have now signed up for and that is what I shall do.

I am raising money for MindOut, which is a mental health service run by and for LGBTQ people.  They provide advice and information, advocacy, a peer support group programme, well-being activities and events, a peer mentoring service, and out of hours chat service and a food and allotment project.  They are based in Brighton and work all over the country.

If you wish to help then please click the donate button.  I have a large target to hit so we can really make a difference and every penny really does help.  (And please don't forget to gift aid if you are eligible!)

Finally, if you are planning your own costume drama then please visit Jokers' Masquerade who have donated costumes!
