Hello,

My name is Darragh Cowley, I'm from Stockport in Manchester and I'm currently trying to raise money to pay for the National Youth Theatre of Great Britain's (NYT) Summer Course. I've been interested and involved with theatre since I was around 11 years old, and now I want to make a life out of it. I'm currently studying Musical Theatre BTEC at Pendleton College, and plan on going to drama school in September 2015. Being part of NYT will help me make this a reality.

This year, 4,800 people auditioned for NYT across the UK, and I was offered a place on the course along with 560 other young actors. However, I can't go if I can't get the funding, so any sponsorship at all towards my £1,100 target would be a fantastic help, and I would be truly grateful. To raise money, I am running 84 miles along the Hadrian's Wall Path over the weekend of the 21st-22nd of June. This will involve a night of sleeping rough between running approximately 42 miles each day.

I will be training every day until the event, whilst also focusing on my studies in college. I am more than determined to achieve my goal, and any help at all would be very much appreciated. Thank you, Darragh Cowley
