Support your film, TV, and cinema community this winter

For many, a life behind the scenes in film, TV, and cinema can be a daily challenge. Loneliness, poor mental health, and financial worries are widespread – and the impact of these sources of stress and anxiety can often be invisible.

Our new film is a powerful reminder that these issues can be hiding in plain sight, affecting your friends and colleagues and the very fabric of our industry as a result. But your support can help light the way to a brighter future.

We’re your industry charity – here for the camera operators, costume designers, projectionists, editors, runners, marketers and everyone who brings stories to life.

Whatever your role, and whether you’re freelance or in a permanent job, we offer free, practical help, emotional support, and financial relief when it’s needed most – offering a safety net and helping hand for anyone who reaches out:

• 24/7 Support Line and access to free counselling
• Financial grants and expert guidance to help prevent debt
• Resources and tools to help change the culture of our industry
• A community that reminds everyone they matter 

We’re also driving cultural change across the industry – working with organisations to equip employers with tailored support, expert guidance, and practical tools like our Whole Picture Toolkit, all designed to build a stronger, united, and healthy workforce.
