An Erskine woman whose charitable efforts have helped support more than 50,000 families, veterans and children, has been recognised at the Pride of Scotland Awards.
Jean Cumming started early intervention counselling charity ‘Crisis’ with just £100, after witnessing a lack of support, guidance and counselling during her time working in the NHS.
Launching in March 1996, the charity focuses on preventative care, helping people with their mental health before it develops into an emergency.
