A teenager from Wigan is hoping to break through a financial barrier and achieve her dreams with and has her sights set on an exclusive London fashion academy. Aimee Lakin is an Art and Design student who is pleading for help with her goal of attending the Jimmy Choo Academy - pioneered by its namesake known for handmade luxury shoes.
The Standish resident got over the first hurdle of actually getting an offer, which less than 100 hopefuls manage to achieve each year. But now there is the financial burden of £18,000 tuition fees a year to think about.
The 17-year-old can get a student loan for living costs, but due to the academy being private, she cannot get the student loan for tuition.
