A teenager from Scarborough with epilepsy is fundraising by asking people to come forward with 'jobs' that he can do

14-year-old Aiden Phillips has previously done weeding, painting, helped move stuff and was even a mascot on a train.

He is raising money for Filey Sea Cadets and said: "Sea Cadets has been a really big part of my life and I wanted to give something back to them. They've helped me so much the whole time I've been there and I love it so much.

"I'm doing odd jobs for anyone that needs it really. I'm just asking for a donation towards Sea Cadets because we're trying to get a new unit.

"I've done weeding, painting and moving stuff for people. I've had quite a lot of fun ones as well; one time I helped put down a conservatory which was really fun and I've also been a mascot on a train."

People can get in touch with Aiden on his Facebook page.
