Over the past 5 years our work within this area has grown dramatically and it now forms a significant part of our client base.

We have worked with many different statutory and voluntary organisations and have developed a comprehensive understanding of their needs.

Not only do we provide our creative and production services, but have also played a hands-on role in funding applications.

Another part of our work that is particular to this area is acting as a facilitator to groups where the project brief is for them to play an active role in the production, from scripting to becoming involved in the filming and editing. We act as advisors in addition to providing production facilities.

Here are some of the projects:

Sussed
Funded by the Home Office, this multimedia project looked at a whole range of issues relevant to young people, and explored them through a variety of different techniques.

Split Second
One of several collaborations with Leicestershire Police, this hard-hitting DVD spelt out the ultimate consequences of using replica weapons. Initially seen as a local resource, it has been adopted at national level and has received widespread distribution.

DVIRP
The DVD looks at the issue of domestic violence and the services provided by the Domestic Violence Integrated Response Project, both to service users and to professional bodies.

Resettlement and Aftercare
One of two projects for Birmingham Youth Offending Service, the RAP programme offers support and activities for those with substance misuse problems. The DVD provides an informative look at what`s on offer.

The rest - including issues such as Disability, Conflict Resolution, Binge Drinking, Class A Drug Use, Happy Slapping, Offender Education and Anti-Social Behaviour
