Mason is another talented artist who regularly attends *Soft Touch Arts in Leicester. He said: ’ The Inspire Award grant will give me a great helping hand to achieving my ambitions and dreams. It would give me a boost to get the things I need to do more and to get myself out there.

‘ It would also help me achieve my goals and being able to buy the required equipment such as pens, pencils, brushes and paper, A scanner to scan my images, art programs for my computer, business cards and advertisement. I will also be in a good position to attend conventions where I can pay to set up my own stand and promote and sell my artwork.'
