Liverpool has rallied behind a Hollyoaks star on his mission to help those struggling this Christmas.
Rory-Douglas Speed, best known for his role as J oel Dexter on the E4 programme, shared an idea he had on his social media which would help “heat the homes of people in poorer areas” around the city.
The 30-year-old actor, who lives in Aigburth, wanted to start a GoFundMe in which people would donate whatever they can afford. The money raised would be put on “people's leccy keys” with Rory spending his Christmas Eve outside a shop offering to pay bills for those struggling.
