YouTube Video Description↓

Woah woah woah, I have SO much to tell you. I spent last week in Sierra Leone on the west coast of Africa staying on a ship called the Global Mercy. It certainly was different from my normal kind of trip, but in some ways... very similar. The Global Mercy is a hospital ship, run by volunteers. You name it, volunteer surgeons, doctors, bakers, cleaners, everything a ship needs people to volunteer to do, for weeks, months, years or even decades. It was MIND BLOWING. Thanks to your support over the last couple years we've raied over Β£100k for the charity Mercy Ships who operate the hospital!!
