“He waits until every Friday for his £5 and he always puts it towards Fifa, he loves playing it so much.
“He usually uses it to buy a pack so he can get players and he plays Fortnite as well.
“We said alright and thought that would be it, but when he came down the next day, he said he really wanted to do it and he set it up all by himself.
“Within three hours of setting up the page he had £145.

“We’re very proud and it’s quite emotional that he’s thought about helping.”
The cash has been gifted to NHS Charities Together and Association of NHS Charities.
