Said the following about Mark Goodall:

“Mark has set up a new registered charity, 'Cosy Coats', this charity raises money to purchase new winter coats or collects donations, to provide warm winter coats to school children from disadvantaged/underprivileged backgrounds. These are new coats, not second-hand, so that the children do not have the stigma of always having 'hand-me-downs' particularly in school, which could lead to bullying and exclusion. This builds the children's confidence and self-esteem and gives them a greater sense of worth.

Mark also actively engages in fundraising himself, completing fun runs and other money raising activities.“
