Tiny Changes - A community of tiny change makers

Scotland's first national youth mental health charity.

We’re a small team running youth-led mental health projects in local communities across Scotland. We believe young people deserve great mental health and we believe in their insight and innovation to make this possible. There’s a mighty community behind us of people who share our passion.

We are currently evaluating our pilot co-production programme and five youth-led pilot projects, based in Glasgow and Edinburgh. The pilots involved film, podcasting, student wellbeing, henna art and a primary school ambassador programme to help young minds feel better. Each project was led by a Tiny Changes employee under 30, co-produced with and supported by Tiny Changes colleagues.

Say hello to our biggest ever fundraiser – The Tiny But Mighty Appeal.

Tiny Changes delivers life-changing safe spaces for young people’s mental health and we’re proud that our work is truly youth-led. Like all small charities, we’re up against a harsh funding climate. Without bigger and long-term income, we won’t be able to co-produce more youth-led mental health projects after the current five end. So we launched The Tiny But Mighty Appeal to raise as much money as we can.

We’re deeply concerned by global injustice, instability and loudening threats to human rights and safety here in the UK. We want to continue co-production to address the impact of this on young people’s mental health. We want to be bold and honest about the issues most important to us, and to other young people, especially those who are marginalised and excluded. We can’t do it alone.

Can you help us? Any donation you can make today, monthly, or anything you purchase from our online shop goes directly to The Tiny But Mighty Appeal total.

You might know us from our origin story, or as a charity that gave out funding, and a lot has changed since then.

Before starting co-production in 2024, we funded 70 innovative mental health ideas; with lots of young people leading change with our financial support. We helped over 4,000 young minds to feel better.

We worked with 24 young advisors to decide what our work might look like if we invested more than just money into young people’s mental health and together we landed on co-production.
