A budding musician has helped raise nearly £600 to support people with mental illnesses.

Dartford Grammar School pupil Harrison Willock, 11, spent a day playing the piano at Bromley South train station to generate money for North Kent Mind.

Southeastern has matched his fundraising efforts by donating an additional £268.47 to the charity.

Harrison collected donations from passengers as he played on one of the network's many station pianos.

He has followed in the footsteps of celebrity musicians Sir Elton John and John Legend, who famously surprised commuters with impromptu performances at St Pancras.

Southeastern's twitter team discovered Harrison's efforts after they were alerted by a member of the public who commended him for his generosity.

He has been supporting North Kent Mind alongside his school house, Vaughn.

The organisation was picked as its charity of choice for the academic year.

Pupils are hoping to raise over £1,500 through activities such as bake sales and sporting challenges.

Harrison's head of house, Emma Law, said: "It is wonderful that Harrison used his talent to raise money for Mind and to spread awareness of an open attitude to mental health.

"He truly exceeded all expectations and serves as an inspiration to all his peers. Vaughn House would like to thank Southeastern for supporting Harrison’s efforts."

Area manger, Danny Hackett, said: "We are delighted to match Harrison’s incredible fundraising efforts to such a worthy cause.

"He has put a smile on both our staff and passenger’s faces through his playing."
