Founder of ManUpSpeakUp Mike Scotland is using his social media channels to try and make a difference this Christmas.

He's running a 25 days of mental health series.

Mike is posting a video each day talking about a different topic or area of mental health, from his own experiences, with the hopes it can make sure others don't feel alone, and can maybe take something for it to help themselves.

He said the feedback he's already received has been "amazing" with many people getting in touch to share their own stories.
