YouTube stars are joining forces for a four-hour livestream in solidarity with fans during lockdown.

Saffron Barker, Big Narstie and Jack Maynard are among the line-up for the tag-team livestream Stream #WithMe.

In the event, which kicks off this week, creators will let fans into how they are dealing with the lockdown.

Saffron will be joined by her Strictly Come Dancing parter AJ Pritchard and his brother Curtis Pritchard from their own homes.

Viewers will also get advice on how to keep themselves entertained, positive and active as many are confined to their homes during the coronavirus pandemic.

Expect some surprise performances and challenges, culminating in an ‘almighty stunt for the nation’. We’re expecting something major.

Fans will also be encouraged to show their support for NHS charities by donating to the NHS Charities Together campaign.

Each of the four hours will be presented by a different YouTuber with other creators joining them throughout the hour.

Participants will also be given two mystery box challenges to display fun activities that viewers can try at home.

Other creators taking part are Lady Leshurr, Anastasia Kingsnorth, Riyadh K and Maisie Peters.

Luke Hyams, the Head of YouTube Originals EMEA, said: ‘Now more than ever, YouTube wants to bring people together.

‘That’s why in our new YouTube Original, ‘Stream #WithMe’ we have enabled the coming together of an incredible line-up of Britain’s most-loved creators and voices to support, entertain and bring a bit of laughter to those at home and on the front lines.

‘Life in isolation brings both difficult challenges and moments of joy. We hope this show brings the latter. We hope you’ll join us and Stream #WithMe!’

Stream #WithMe kicks off on 30 April at 4pm BST.
