Callum Leslie George Raybould is a British Writer, Actor and Producer.
Born in Redditch, Worcestershire to Leslie Raybould (a househusband) and Philipa Raybould (an accountant), he has a sister, India Raybould, who is two years older. He is of mostly British descent, with both German and Indian ancestry. Callum Raybould was privately educated at The Mount School, Bromsgrove, until the age of 10. After his parents' divorce at the age of 8 he moved with his father and sister to Hagley, Worcestershire, in his father's old family home. He attended Haybridge High School and Sixth Form there, but left at the age of 14 due to his disability, Chronic Pain and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. A permanent condition that left him in a wheelchair, he underwent a Pain Management Course at Bath Pain Clinic in order to manage his condition, and after physical therapy, began walking age at the age of 16.
He attended Kidderminster College the same year, and earned a diploma in Levels 2 and 3 of Creative Media and the Level 3 MAS Records Artist Development program in 4 years, as well as additional units in Acting and Photography. Intending to strictly be a Writer/Director, he made several short films in the genres of drama, horror, and thriller, often acting in his own projects. The autonomy here allowed him to explore performance as well, and he acted in several amateur stage productions, including Equus, Sleuth and Little Shop of Horrors, and writing his own stage plays.
After several years of media production and acting performances in local film and theatre, Callum established himself as a Writer, Actor and Producer, developing his own feature film projects. He also works as a Script Editor for independent film productions both in the UK and abroad. His first feature film as Writer, Actor and Producer is based on his experiences with disability, and his time at the Bath Pain Clinic.
