Financial aid, Counselling & Career support for you


Dear Filmmaker,

A quick update to highlight a meaningful connection within our wider community.

In support of the work of our friends at the Film & TV Charity, we’re spotlighting a vital organisation dedicated to the wellbeing of those working across film, TV, and cinema in the UK:

They offer financial grants and guidance, mental health support, including counselling, and workplace wellbeing support, helping individuals and organisations navigate both personal and professional challenges.

We also invite you to explore their Reel Impact programme, now open for applications. It is aimed at mid to senior Black and Global Majority talent, as well as Black and Global Majority led organisations, with a focus on skills, leadership, and industry connections.


At the same time, a reminder that submissions for the London Rolling Film Festival 2026 are currently open, including the one for our Help To Roll Fund.
