Refilwe McCracken, Interim CEO

Filo is Tiny Changes’ Interim CEO. The Chief Executive is responsible for planning, financing and directing the charity’s work. As we’re a small team, Filo also manages staff, leads finance, fundraising and marketing, and works closely with our Trustees, project leaders and young advisors.

Filo joined the team as a young consultant under 30 back in 2020, went on to become Operations Manager, and helped build our foundations as an equalities-driven, agile and youth-led charity.

Our Board of Trustees

The Board of Trustees is responsible for the overall control and governance of our charity. They meet at least four times a year with the CEO and spend time with Wavemakers and team members in our work to help young minds feel better.

Over 65% of our Board are women. Our Board is intergenerational – aged under 22 to over 70 years old.

We have 6 Trustees – Aine Lovedale (Co-Chair, Manager, National Lottery Community Fund Scotland), Ami Anderson (Co-Chair, Series Producer, STV Children’s Appeal),  John Todd (Treasurer, former Partner, Johnston Carmichael), Ali Whitty (MD, Erskine Arts), Dionne Hossack (Student Nurse, Activist) Marion Hutchison (Scott’s Mum, Founding Trustee.)

Wavemakers

We are building a network of young volunteers, staff and activists under 30 to make sure that young people are at the heart of all of our work.
