Just going to copy and paste his story:
Hey guys, charity boi here...
To mark reaching 300k subscribers on YouTube, I've decided to hold a charity race supporting Mind.
As a lot of you know, I've suffered with my mental health a fair bit over the last few years and it's something that has had a considerable impact on my life aswell as my family.
When I was 13 years old, my father took his own life after a long fight with depression and alcoholism . I never really received counselling or therapy at the time, and it's something that has had a lasting impact on the way I see the world. I've always wanted to have the chance to do something like this, but now feels like the right time. This race is dedicated to him.
I know that i'm not alone in this struggle, so I wanted to use my channel for good and try and raise some money for a worthy cause.
I hope this thread looks ok, just doing it on my phone but yeah, come and watch and help raise some money for a fantastic cause.
