'It brought light to me that this war is real and its happening right now. And it is easy for us to scroll through social media and read the papers but when you’re actually there speaking to real life people that have been through it and with their children. And you know their children came first.

'As a parent myself now it just really hit home to me that everyday we want to keep our kids safe but we’re not in a war zone. 'The money we raise is going to help all those amazing families and children across the world to play safe and that’s what I’m doing it for.
