Empowering Communities Through Stage and Screen

The Impact

Healthcare Education : Documentaries produced on ‘Hearing Voices’ such as Stigmadies and Demon Shoes are used to train nurses and doctors in hearing voices awareness.

Award-Winning Storytelling : Stigmadies awarded Best Documentary at the SEE ME Film Festival.

Government Policy : Careless is currently employed by the Scottish Government to promote awareness of fostering issues.

International Advocacy : No Dowry No Date has been screened globally to raise awareness and challenge the issues surrounding forced marriage.
