A charity set up by the family of Frightened Rabbit singer Scott Hutchison has announced a £100,000 fund to support mental health projects in Scotland. 

On Wednesday, Tiny Changes launched its Make Tiny Changes Fund, which will offer grants up to £10,000 to individuals and organisations in a bid to address inequality and mental health issues.

Coinciding with World Mental Health Day on Sunday, the charity teamed up with Double Take Projections to project bold messages by young people around Scotland to celebrate the launch of the fund.

Tiny Changes CEO Kara Brown said: “Today is an exciting milestone for Tiny Changes and we couldn’t think of a better way to mark it than projecting the words of Scott and young people onto Scottish landmarks. 

“Young people need their voices heard, equality taken seriously, and earlier support for their mental health prioritised, now more than ever. 

“We hope that our first national Make Tiny Changes Fund inspires lots of people to join us and is a reminder that even on the darkest days, the light will come back on again.”
