      From court to raising mental health awareness - the rapper making a difference
      Nov 3 2019
      A year and a half ago, J Grange was excluded from school, labelled a troublemaker and was going down the wrong path.The Chelmsford rapper was experiencing run-ins with the police but an appearance in court changed everything.Now, the 17-year-old is on a different path - making music and wanting to spread vitally important messages.The teenager had always wondered why he was acting up and why he was acting differently - until he was diagnosed with ADHD.After that diagnosis, the mental health struggles that came along with it - the frustration, the depression and the anger - were suddenly put into perspective.Beforehand that anger caused him to go down the wrong path but things are very different today.J Grange now focuses on what inspires him - making upbeat music to help people escape from whatever dark periods they may go through.It also helps him release anger and deliver his mental health messages to his fans.He also mentors disadvantaged children through a charity to guide them down a different path than the one he did.Brought to you by Essex Live, Humans of Chelmsford is a podcast about inspiring people with incredible tales from across the city.Each show we uncover the stories you never knew existed about fellow Chelmsford residents and their lives.Music in this episode is from Broke For Free and J Grange.You can find J Grange’s YouTube channel by clicking here For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.

      On the second episode of the third series of Humans of Chelmsford we hear the story of Brian McGovern, the co-founder of Cool to be Kind Chelmsford.The community project has been helping rough sleepers in the city for several years and they have risen to become one of the prominent voices in the bid to improve the situation.Through their outreach services they have come to know several rough sleepers within the city centre as well as the complex issues many have to deal with. Brian is someone who has a close connection with them. Through Cool to be Kind he is tackling the issue head on and is arguing for several policies he believes can help change these people's fortunes.He also argues that society has failed if there is just one person out living on the streets.With numbers out on the streets growing, Brian takes us through the intricacies of homelessness and explains why there is no easy fix.He also tells us why he has become so personally invested in these people's struggles.Brought to you by Essex Live, Humans of Chelmsford is a podcast about inspiring people with incredible tales from across the city.Each show we uncover the stories you never knew existed about fellow Chelmsford residents and their lives.Music in this episode is from Broke For Free.For updates on the podcast follow the Facebook page or the Twitter page.You can find more about Cool to be Kind by clicking here.
