'Playing video games helps me to remember my dad'

15 year old Hugo lost his dad to cancer three years ago. They used to play video games together.

Today, he still re-plays games that have his dad's high scores on.

Speaking to 5 Live’s Tony Livesey, he said: “Growing up with my dad and playing games together helped us bond.â€

Hugo is now an ambassador at the Children in Need bereavement project ‘Stand By Me’, which helps younger children cope with losing a parent.
