‘I didn’t have a very good upbringing. I struggle with mental health. I have autism, ADHD, and am being screened for bipolar and psychosis.
‘I can’t stay at my grandparents’ because my granddad is terminally unwell. I have nowhere else to go, and I need help.
‘Social services refuses to help me despite what I have told them. I am desperate.’
Jack then panned the camera around to show the area where he is currently staying as he looks for help.
He said: ‘I’ve been sleeping in the streets. I am currently sleeping in a trailer that has smashed-in windows, is unsafe, is two hours away from my work, which means I struggle to get to work every day.
‘It’s difficult. Life is hard. At the moment, I have nothing else. I am on my knees begging for you guys to just share this, do something, spread the message of how the government are treating kids.
‘I need help. Please share, please share it with whoever you can. You don’t have to pay me anything, I don’t need anything. I just need you to make this go as viral as possible.
‘I’ll continue to put some more stuff out, but, please, I need help.’
