From a young age Lewis Jeng's prospects seemed limited at best. The Stockport film fanatic was diagnosed with autism aged 10 alongside Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) His parents were told he’d never be able to sit an exam, he’d struggle to get any qualifications, and the prospect of going to university seemed implausible.
But Lewis, from Cheadle Hulme, worked hard to overcome the odds and achieved a BTEC in creative media from Cheadle & Marple Sixth Form College.
However, at that point going to university still seemed out of the question. Yet after visiting Liverpool Hope, and being moved by how much the university does to look after its students, he was convinced he should enroll.
