Overview

My story is no different from countless other youngsters. I could easily have fallen into a life of crime, violence, alcohol, drugs and despair. I could have chosen to follow the negative path and repeat the cycle but instead I chose to dwell on the positive moments. It really doesn’t matter where you start but where you finish. Under the smiling face of ‘Glasgow’s Miles Better’, poverty and violence still loom large. Not everyone makes it out. But Scott Kyle did. Latch-key kid from the back streets of Rutherglen to award-winning actor and producer on red carpets around the world, Scott’s story is one of hope. With unflinching honesty and heart, he shares his journey, from a boy searching for belonging to a man determined to give back. It’s Not Where You Start is more than a story of survival – it’s a testament to the transformative power of love, laughter and compassion.
