This is the concept of a fund to help tuition fee protesters , founded by artist Jake Chapman, the fund offers to pay any student's legal fees or fines incurred for taking part in demonstrations against the increase in tuition fees by the coalition government.
"We obviously can't pay their higher education fees, but we do have the ability to pay the fines - both in the future and retrospectively," Chapman tells the Sunday Times. "We are very much in favour of their [the students] campaign of protest and, if necessary, civil disobedience."
Some 80 plus designers, actors and artists have so far offered to contribute to the fund, which will raise money through an auction of clothes and art work.
