St Enoch centre teams up with Tiny Changes to improve lives

The charity was founded by the family of Frightened Rabbit frontman, Scott Hutchinson, to help struggling young people.

It comes after the 36-year-old sadly lost his life in 2018 after battling depression which left his fans, bandmates, and loved ones devastated.

Now the charity will play video messages across the popular shopping centre to raise awareness of the first Make Tiny Changes Month, with a QR code linking viewers to more information about how they can make a difference.

The aim is to encourage the public to fundraise by undertaking small, positive changes throughout the month of March.

Research suggests that 10% of young people in Scotland have a clinically diagnosed mental health disorder, yet 70% of children with mental health problems have not had appropriate intervention at a sufficiently early age.

Anne Ledgerwood, Centre Director, said: “With 75% of mental health illnesses being established by age 24, the importance of supporting young people’s mental health cannot be underestimated.

"We are thrilled to be partnering with Tiny Changes to build on their work in Glasgow’s city centre and make a difference to the lives of children across Scotland.”

We previously reported how Scott Hutchinson’s mum said he could still be alive if he had access to better mental health support.

Marion Hutchison is committed to "use his voice" to call for better mental health support services across Scotland.

She said she thought Scott would have had a "good chance" of copying with episodes of anxiety and depression.

His brothers, Neil and Grant, helped start the charity Tiny Changes.

Marion said: “Scott was probably best known as the lead singer, songwriter of the Scottish band, Frightened Rabbit, but to me and to his family and to his close friends.

"He was just the most creative, the funniest, the most honest and the kindest person that I've ever met.

“Scott was certainly in quite a dark place during the last couple of months of his life but the rest of the time he wasn't, it was intermittent,” she added.

“He had a great life and he followed his dream, he reached out to people and it's just so sad that he didn't have the help, he didn't know where to go.

“If Scott had got the help when he needed it and had somewhere to go in his head or physically when he was struggling, I believe that he would have had a good chance.”
