Just got that

It must help to get a foot in the door to begin with but then it's down to their own talent as they often have to prove themselves. I don't think they last very long if they can't cut the mustard so to speak. I do believe, however, that the kids who can afford private lessons alongside school are go...

Actors need to be available to attend castings sometimes at very short notice and therefore trying to support themselves in a full time job would be very difficult. The cost of travelling to castings on a regular basis must surely come into the equation too. I met a young man recently at a London ca...

Hi Livvyvicky,
I know a couple of kids starting in September. Is your dd starting there?

I heard they're still looking. Are you sure it's cast?

Thank you so much dwafffamily. I really appreciate that . I shall send you my email missmineypenny.

Registered at the new health centre this morning . They said it'll be up to a week to transfer, maybe less and a couple of days to get form signed.

Apparently, the doctor would have had to have gone through his medical records to check ds was healthy (he is). That is what he was not prepared to do, so instead it generated so much more work for everybody else. If the practice manager had pp'd the letter (as she has done before) or allowed one of...

I took a 'certificate of health' form, in this morning which just required a doctor's signature and practice stamp. Shortly afterwards, I received his medical notes in the post, along with a letter informing me that 'due to the shortage of GP's at the surgery we do not complete forms which are not i...

I haven't been given all the details yet but have been advised to get the letter asap. I think I'll have a look on their website and see what it says about a 'fit to work' letter. It sounds better than me saying ds needs it to prove that he's fit to travel. I've asked a doctor to sign a letter in th...

Their argument is they are short staffed and it is not NHS. I've printed off a form which only needs a signature and stamp. Fingers crossed

Thanks mouskouri41, he was over the moon!

I shall try that tomorrow. Originally, I enclosed a template of the sort of letter I needed from them. I am concerned that they will just stick it under the pile of 'non NHS' things to do!

Please can someone help. I have been told that my ds has been picked for a part in a feature film and I need a GP letter as the filming is abroad. Three weeks ago I wrote to the medical secretary at our GP surgery and asked for a letter, saying he was fit and healthy to take part. When I went to pic...

There is no excuse to be that cold towards a child. I'm saddened to hear this ScoobyDoo. Hugs

I'd love dd to go for this but think it will go to someone out of licence. Probably a short 20 something who can play a quirky 14 year old.

Is this through agents?
