This charity provides adapted bicycles and community riding programs for children and adults with physical or learning disabilities. Brotherhood set an initial fundraising goal of £5, 000. The campaign concluded with 350 supporters contributing over £7, 200. Every £500 collected equated to the purchase of one adapted bike for the charity.

He used the momentum from his 2021 success to drive donations for international youth aid.Hermitcraft and Gamers Outreach Collaborations
Brotherhood participates in massive collaborative charity streams alongside his fellow Hermitcraft server members. The group partnered with Gamers Outreach to fund GO Karts. These units are portable video game kiosks designed for pediatric hospital rooms. The kiosks give recovering children access to entertainment during long medical stays. The major Hermitcraft charity stream for this cause occurred in October 2022. The creators initially set a goal of $25, 000. Viewers donated over $30, 000 before the broadcast even started. By the end of the event, the group raised $439, 000. The Hermitcraft group expanded their efforts during the Gamers for Giving event in April 2024. Ten members attended the LAN party at Eastern Michigan University in person. The combined online and physical event generated over $840, 000 for Gamers Outreach. In April 2025, the Hermitcraft creators hosted another charity stream. Microsoft and Team Xbox hosted the group at the Mojang studio in Redmond, Washington. This two day broadcast raised over $847, 000. Across these three major events between 2022 and 2025, the Hermitcraft community generated over $2 million for pediatric hospital gaming kiosks. By June 2025, the funds deployed by Hermitcraft provided GO Karts to over 50 new hospitals.Early Viewer Donations
