- My first day back to lectures at uni in third year!!! I also went rock climbing, cooked for my housemate, and improved my bedding dramatically. Doesn't that sound thrilling?
I turned my housemate's bedroom into a museum: • i turned my housemate'...

Jack please know that we understand that if you need more time on your degree we understand if you miss a day or a week, so take breaks if you need them also love how you stood in your toes when you showed us your outfit
Ikr, wonder how tall he is!
@@sunflowerthebunbunbunny comparing to the tables/doors/ other ppl he looks ~5’9
"ceilings are not my most favourite part of a room, but they are definitely up there" jaCK STOP
atm it feels like i’m drowning in deadlines; personal statement, epq, mock revision and everything else that comes with year 13. these vlogs are genuinely keeping me going and making me so excited for uni next year which is the best motivation to keep trying. ily hope you’re doing well
Literally same, I'm year 11 but my school makes you apply with a full on student CV and personal statement and I've got so many exams and stuff coming up it sucks... Good luck for all your deadlines and mocks and stuff x
Frankie Northcott trust me GCSEs are literally nothing when you come into year13 you’re gonna wish you can experience the exam stress of year 11 everyday rather than the stress of year13 trust me I’m going through year 13 for the second time
ugh I'm so glad to not be doing that anymore. Just understand this, all this hard work...it will be worth it. I swear to god A levels is helping me understand my uni course immensely and I wanted to drop out...I'm so glad I didn't.
Frankie Northcott oh that sounds awful, thank you so much good luck with all your exams you’ll smash them x
abby k thank you that’s really helpful, i hope you’re enjoying uni! x
Hey! I don't know if this really counts as a mental health charity but I would love if you could donate the money to the st thomas' evelina ward in london. My sister was referred to the psychiatric ward during a very hard period of her life and they were literally the most amazing people ever and we were so lucky to have them for free with no waiting list. She's still on the list, but doesnt receive regular treatment, but we recently found out there are loads of children who need help on the waiting list, when they need immediate help the most.
I think this is such an amazing idea, and I 100% support whichever charity you decide to go for, they are all amazing! Thank you x
Comments like these make me so proud to work for the Trust ♥ Hoping all you loved ones are doing well
There is still ONE book lying horizontally on the bookshelf and it properly triggers me
Same
That’s such an amazing idea, to donate the money! I want to mention Darkness into Light. It’s originally an Irish event from Pieta House/ the Samaritans, but now organised world wide, where people gather in May to literally walk from darkness into light, for 5 km, to raise awareness of mental health, but specifically also for suicide prevention! I love the idea of it!
Young Minds is great, I actually love that you mentioned this as my school totally ignored it... loving all of your content xx
I completely second Young Minds - they do some fab work on mental health day, and their HeadMeds page has helped me on more than one occasion make my mind up about different medications due to their impartial advice on each med.
@@charliclement4345 Yeah, they've massively helped my friend a couple years ago and she did a speech/presentation thing about it all in two of our lessons today. I honestly love the organisation for helping her
One of my friends from University, unfortunately, lost both her brothers to suicide in 2017. Since then, she has been getting support from the Jacob Abraham Foundation based in Cardiff. She completed the Cardiff Half Marathon in 2017 and the Newport 10k in 2018 to raise money for them and now runs a monthly support group for 16-25-year-olds there!
Jack: my room is FREEZING!!!
also Jack: sits in a tee shirt
BEAT is a charity that is very close to my heart. I’m a 1st year Durham student studying English Lit as well, and I believe BEAT is one of the best mental health and eating disorder charities out there. It would mean a lot if you considered this charity to donate to because I feel there is not enough understanding in our community just yet about what it means to go through the struggles of an ED and BEAT really helps spread an accurate, positive message on the issue
I good mental health charity it Mind, they are really great and I'm not sure if anyone has noticed, especially in Britain that they've had adverts on TV for 'Britain get talking' which I really think is a positive thing because you really never know if someone is going through anything unless you speak to them and nowadays everyone is usually glued on their phones or laptops, on social media, and that sometimes doesn't even benefit those with a negative mental health.
Hey Jack, I’ve just started uni and I’ve been struggling a lot with loneliness and my own mental health problems, and I want you to know that these vlogs have helped me so much. It really feels like checking in with a friend everyday, and I feel so much less lonely, so thank you. I’d like to suggest Mind as a charity, they are quite big but they do so much more than people realise. They are personally important to me because they create booklets on different mental health issues which are discretely left in school nurse offices and sick rooms across the country. These booklets helped me to find the words and confidence to seek help for myself when I was scared to be labelled as faking it. I hope you get to see this, and I am so grateful to you for everything you do, and I admire your willingness to donate so much x
Jack Edwards is that type of person that you can’t get mad at😂
I’m currently doing my a levels and your videos are giving me something to look forward to through all the stress - this is such a lovely channel and watching your videos cheers me up so much so thank you!!! 😊
me too!! good luck on all your exams
Thank you! Good luck to you too hope it all goes well!!
Hey Jack. Thank you so much. I'm in hospital right now for my mental health and I'm really pleased that you recognised the day today! I'd recommend young minds. It supports the hospital and we are raising money for it at the moment. It's really amazing that it helps the hospital. Thank you so much. Hope you had a good day :)
Mind really helped me when I was down and dealing with things, literally pulled me out of the darkness in a way that felt so natural and really challenges the stigma around therapy x
Not kidding, this actually made my day
I really think that The men shed in fleetwood deserve a mention and if possible a cheeky donation, they do amazing work here and have prevented literally so many suicides, the guy who runs it personally makes sure each and every man in this town have someone to talk to if they need it, there have been times where he has been in bed and has gone out to make sure someone gets help, they are amazing
I love these daily vlogs! I feel like I'm living my uni life while doing my GCSE's
Definitely CHAMS! Last year I was involved in a terror attack and the support I have received since, oh my it’s just amazing x
Young Minds UK is one of the charities closest to my heart as they are all about helping young people and making sure they feel visible and connected.
definitely young minds, i think theyve done a lot for young people and theres still a lot to be done 💛
This is quite a new charity but I would recommend the Julius Little Foundation- a young man from my community and the brother of a friend of a girl in my year took his own life earlier this year and so the Charity was set up a few months ago to raise awareness of mental health and help those who are struggling. Please give this charity a thought as it is close to all out hearts in my school and in the community! So glad you’re raising awareness Jack, wishing you good health and happiness💕
Jack I think it’s so amazing that you are donating the funds to a mental healthy charity. I think donating the money to Young Minds, they are a charity that support young people across England . Love your videos💕💕💕
The Beat charity saved my life. They help people struggling with eating disorders. Beat definitely don’t get enough promotion so any shout outs for the charity would be huge for them. I raised money for the charity by cycling 200 miles in 2 days back in 2016. 😊😊😊
Omg I have the exact same blanket! It is soooo freaking cozy and soft during the cold winter months!
You had me waiting yesterday only to find out you’d missed a day 😭
- which btw is totally okay!!! You come first 💙
Also the 4 dislikes on this video is piers morgan X4
It’s probably too late but I used to have therapy at a place called the Deborah Ubee trust, it’s a charity organisation that provides therapy to everyone, irrespective of their ability to pay or not, and my therapist and everyone else was absolutely amazing!
Nightline - really helped a uni friend in need. Love your videos Jack, they make me smile every day 😁
RT projects in Durham is a small charity that delivers art sessions to people who are struggling with their mental health. They are based in Gilesgate so you could even go along to see what the donation would be used for and experience the amazing work they do. Just a suggestion 😊
i'm a first year english student, and the work is absolutely overflowing me, but your videos keep me soooo motivated!
CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably)- a charity that focuses on men under 45 who are vulnerable or need help to do with a mental health problem, they really helped out a friend and, when he later died, his family
The fact that Jack wants to donate to a mental health charity is so noble and caring!😭
Hi Jack, in answer to your mental health charities question - Samaritans and Mind....those are national ones, but Samaritans phoneline is staffed by volunteers and it costs a lot to keep it running. Closer to (your) home...does the University still have the Nightline service, where students can ring to discuss their problems? I bet they would appreciate the donation. Hope this helps. Cheers, Wendy :-)
The struggles of being at uni for 3years and still not knowing where your lectures are😂😂
Reaction to Ruby Granger changing courses to english lit too
you are so amazing jack. thank you for all of your content!
Excellent. I will do a video about this for uni students!
It’s so surreal that I’m studying in Durham now and I see the same sights in your video
Mind or Young Minds. Mind is the kind of general "raise awareness for mental health" charity and young minds does the same but for young people. They try to better mental health services for children in schools across the country and also try to educate young people in an easier, less overwhelming way. They do some great work
love it when people with your kind of platform spread messages like this... PREACH IT !!
jack's style >>>>
Young Minds is a really great charity that helps young people with mental health. They have a really good reputation and do amazing work
I find the live chat option is almost always better than actually calling someone, no matter what the company! it helps that you also then have a written record of everything you've said to each other so you don't get so bamboozled
You always make me laugh--in the best possible way. I love the donation concept!
Headspace and ReachOut are two great organisations here in Australia! Headspace focuses on youth mental health and I’ve always thought the work they do is so valuable and necessary 😊
Love a casual cameo from my uni, go Swansea!
It's only in Manchester but 42nd Street is incredible for young people's mental health and provides counselling and group sessions for so many people aged 18-25! It helped me out a LOT last year but the waiting list for CBT is 7 months and for counselling is over a year, so could really do with more funding!
Get the boys a lift is an organisation based in Pembrokeshire that run a cafe where you can come in and chat and have the opportunity to talk with a counsellor. Pembrokeshire is a really rural county and that can bring difficulties in awareness of mental health and access to services
You are an absolute gem Jack Edwards, we are so lucky to have you
I mean it’s a brilliant thing that you are willing to donate your money to any mental health charity as frankly they are all amazing and worthy, but 2 that I particularly like are Young Minds and SAMH. Young Minds is a more national, well-known charity but it does such important work in raising awareness of mental health in teens & young people who are kind of stuck in that weird transition of not being a child anymore but also not yet an adult. On the other hand, the Scottish Association for Mental Health (SAMH) do incredible work by supporting everyone and anyone in Scotland with their mental health. They support everything from the mental health of children to the elderly, but what I really like about them, as a school pupil, is that they release support around the times of Scottish exams to make us aware of mindfulness/ emotional welfare support etc. I know it’s obviously a much more localised charity but they really are amazing. But any charity that is chosen is totally worthy of your donation, which is great x
I love seeing you so enthusiastic about your course. It’s inspirational. 🙂🙂🌟
Great video! I love the pillows content lmao and I think it’s great that you’re donating the money you made to a mental health charity. As an Irish viewer there aren’t really any UK charities that I’d be aware of but I know that you and your UK followers will pick a great one!
your videos literally make me day - don't worry about taking time off though or missing a day xx
you're so amazing i wanna cry😭
Honestly loving these daily vlogs, Jack! Also so happy that you're donating your fee to a mental health charity. Wishing you the best for your final year at uni!
young minds for sure- they do so much awareness work its fantastic
How on earth have I not watched your videos until recently??? I love your content so damn much like I’ve somehow spent this weekend watching all your videos back to like 2017😂
Aw I love these vlogs. Now a month into uni yr 1 and this is lovely to watch
thank you so much for the effort put into all these vlogs lately!! 🤟🏼🤩❤️ i love them so much! and they’re so comforting fr me to watch! im starting school on monday! y1sem2 and i cannot wait time start school!
i RESPECT your American Boy blasting!!! Wish I was in your lecture haha, what a bop
Jack your style is amazing! You should do a look-book😉
Been feeling really unproductive and sad and bad about myself lately, seeing your face definitely cheered me up. Love ya Jackk :))
My mum works for a charity in Starbeck (North Yorkshire) called Wellspring Therapy & Training. They provide affordable but professional counselling for children, youth and adults making it much more accessible for those who need it. In addition they also promote and educate people on good mental health. Being such a small charity they really appreciate any donations! 💛💛
A great charity that has genuinely changed my life and mental health is the Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust.
They aim to rehabilitate young cancer survivors by taking then on sailing trips every summer to rebuild their shattered confidence and their mental health. In my case cancer destroyed my sense of self worth and this charity gave it me back.
off the record based in bristol offers support and drop in therapy and art sessions for teens completely free! xx
Really enjoying these Daily vlogs, don't know how you manage it 😂 Also especially enjoyed climbing and looking forward to those socials you have planned!
love ur videos arm and what an amazing thing to do w ur platform xx
love these vlogs and thank you for talking about mental health x
This the best thing to come home to from uni. Really made my day 🤗
Doing the restoration study in our 2nd year :)
I need need need a vid on how to get better at english language and literature consistency
Hey! BF Adventure in Cornwall is an incredible charity that works with children and adults with special needs, they have a ‘head out’ programme solely for those with mental health needs. Stats released today say that 100% of young people believe it has impacted them in a positive way. Unfortunately with Cornwall being so small this wonderful outdoor education charity just doesn’t get the funding it needs to allow these incredible young people to attend and get the support they need. 92% of parents said they believe the outdoor environment benefited their child’s recovery, and any little really goes a long way!
these videos are the best study break
The Listening Post. I'm not sure if it's a charity but they came to my sixth form in the North East and really helped me with my anxiety especially during the last 6 months of a level. They were lovely people and provided a service for people that were not referred to CHAMS but still needed help
Jack you don’t have to daily vlog!! Please have a great first year
I know an incredible charity based in Cambodia. It is named PSE (in French, it means "for a child's smile"). I have discovered it through a film and their story is unbelievable! The two founders traveled to Cambodia in the 80s I believed, and were stunned and shocked to see children collecting waste in a massive tip and even dying there. They gave them food once a day, then, they created a school, and now, there are more than 7000 students there, saved by the charity!
Besides, it is not really a mental health charity, but the children rescued by PSE suffer from sexual abuse, poverty and sometimes, they are hit by their parents if they do not collect enough waste. So...
Well known but Mind has helped me out a lot! They run sessions and advice for those who are struggling and do a lot for the NHS mental health sector too.
Wow this is incredible, you are so thoughtful jack keep up the great work! Xxxx
BEAT is a great mental health charity, it's an eating disorder charity that do amazing work and have helped so many
It's weird watch pre quarantine, short brunette, beardless Jack, always loving your style man!
7cups 100% It’s basically a site where you can talk to people about you how feel. I’m a listener but I also talk to people on it about my mental health
Shout out to Jack identifying as Mary Berry rather than Prue Leith #tbt #inmarywetrust 😂
If you'd like to read it there's a sequel to 'Things Fall Apart' called 'No Longer at Ease'.
Young minds🌟💛
Omg you’re the most amazing person ever, you actually make me happy everyday lol
Thank god for jack Edwards daily vlogs

Loving the daily vlogs... and the beef with Piers Morgan xx ❤️

KOOTH KOOTH KOOTH, free online instant counselling, has literally saved my life when I’ve been depressed or suicidal, they need more support so they can do what they do better xxxx

Literally, love your generosity and charm, let's go on a date x
Aw Jack I'm an ambassador for Fika and i think its so nice that you've donated your earnings to it! Young minds and timetochange campaign are two of my favourites x
Chaucer’s a great pre-1800 if you have that option I loved doing The Canterbury Tales
