The actor has taken a sabbatical from acting to focus on his non-profit organisation, Shameless Fund.

“But with everything happening in the world right now, I'm going to stop acting for a bit next year and just focus on the Shameless Fund," he said.

What is The Shameless Funds?

Founded by Bailey, the charity raises funds for non-profit organisations that support the LGBTQ+ community. In the next few months, he will be focusing on his UK-based charity.

“Over the next few months, I'll be focusing on staffing and making sure we get all the right people in all the right places,” he continued. “There's this statistic: out of every £100 raised in the U.K., only 1 [penny] goes to the LGBTQ+ community. You really have to dig to find solutions, and I genuinely think The Shameless Fund is exactly that.”

Founded in June 2024, the organisation partners with several brands to raise money for several groups. Recently, the actor partnered with an eyewear brand.
