The stream will be on my channel, 18th December 2015, 10pm GMT: http://www.twitch.tv/pipgirl3000

Hello everybody!

My name is Emily, I'm 21 years old and I have recently started streaming on Twitch. For those who don't know what this entails, it is - in a nutshell - a live broadcast where you can interact with your viewers. My stream isn't everyone's cup of tea, as it's a gaming stream - as most of them are on Twitch.

I have been eager to start another fundraiser to raise money for some incredible charities, however with starting University it's difficult to find the time or funding to do so.

I have decided to take it upon myself to do a 24 hour live stream where I will be playing video games and talking to all of the viewers. I would love it if you could join the stream, and any donations will be so appreciated and will definitely make it all worth while! This stream will take place over the festive period, the date is to be announced! I will keep you all updated.

You may or may not know that three years ago I unfortunately lost my dad to cancer. (Yes, the image for this fundraising page is me looking like a mini snowman and my wonderful dad, Keith) During his last few weeks, my Dad stayed at Katharine House Hospice in Stafford, my hometown. I can not explain how thrilled I was with the care my Dad received during his time there, not to mention the comfort and support we as a family were given by each member of staff. They ensured my Dad was comfortable and pain free during his last few weeks, and for that I am forever thankful. For this reason, I have chosen to raise money for Katharine House as a way of thanking them for all of the amazing work they do, patients they care for and families they help through such a difficult time in their lives.

I will appreciate any donations, and these donations will really keep me going through the last hours of this long stream.

Thank you for your support.
