A YOUTUBE star from Ochiltree is aiming to give underprivileged kids a day they will never forget.

The content creator, who has over 15,000 subscribers on the video sharing platform, will be taking on a "never seen before" challenge in a bid to raise funds for youngsters in need.

Blair - whose videos see him travel across Scotland and elsewhere in Europe to attend football matches - will be aiming to complete a monumental 24-hour challenge, which will see him visit all 12 Scottish Premiership team's home ground during that time span.

The 21-year-old has set up a fundraiser that will run alongside the challenge, which he will be completing on November 22, as he visits each ground from Kilmarnock to Dingwall some 200 miles north.

Once he completes the challenge, and fundraising is complete, he will then be collecting the money raised and distributing this amongst a number of children's charities across the nation.

In a video explaining the fundraiser, Blair said he is "absolutely buzzing to put smiles on these kids' faces".

He added that he will be surprising those who receive the donations, which will include footballs, football boots, match tickets and days out, in a bid to spread "the magic of Christmas".

Blair continued: "In life we take for granted how lucky we actually are - remember your first football game, or your first football boots? - however, some kids, they don't, they've not had that opportunity.

"As seen in many of my videos a simple day out for a child could be the best day of their life. Unfortunately this is not possible for a lot of kids and this is why I decided to make some change.

"On the lead up to Christmas I want to give these kids the same chances we have had in life and I'm kindly asking for your help - I can't make a difference without your help.

"By donating to this fundraiser you will not only be donating to charity, but you will be able to see exactly where your money has gone as I will be producing a full Youtube video, giving those in need, the moments they have been waiting for."

He already has clothing bran Stjarna Apparel on board as a sponsor but Blair has been encouraging donations no matter how small or large - as this could make all the difference.

He added: "Whether it be £1, whether it be £100, every single penny will go towards putting a smile on a child's face.

"This is going to be something that you have not seen before in Scotland and I am absolutely buzzing to put smiles on these kids faces.

"They don't know it's coming and this is just going to be the magic of Christmas.

"Whether you are a business, a football club, or just a person, every single donation counts towards giving these children a moment they have been waiting for their whole life.

"This is going to be something incredible and we can all make a difference together."
