Lanarkshire landmarks and public buildings light up in pink as part of Scotland’s Mental Health Awareness Week. Reporting from local outlets says the campaign is led by SAMH, the Scottish mental health charity, and is intended to raise awareness of mental health and provide support across the region.
The Daily Record reports that all three Lanarkshire hospitals, along with the Motherwell Civic Centre and the village of Newarthill, are illuminated in SAMH’s signature pink. The Glasgow Times similarly describes a broader set of sites across Lanarkshire taking part in the lighting campaign, highlighting that the events are connected to Mental Health Awareness Week.
Both sources frame the lighting as a visible community signal of SAMH’s ongoing work with people affected by mental health issues. While they provide general information about the reason for the lighting and the organisations involved, the coverage focuses primarily on where the lights are shown rather than giving detailed statistics or specific programme announcements for the week.
