Consultancy and training services
We can help you to grow
The success of your organisation is built on your people and, in the current economic climate, attracting and retaining talent through good people practices is key.
Supporting carers at work makes good business sense. There has never been a more important time to ‘carer proof’ your business to ensure that you retain skilled workers rather than recruiting and retraining new staff. 85% of carers report that access to flexible working is very important to them when considering a potential employer (Carers Trust - Unpaid Carers and Employment Aug 2022).
The BFI Skills Review highlighted dramatic growth in production in the UK has led to crew shortages at all levels and estimated that the UK film and TV industry will require between 15,130 and 20,770 additional full-time equivalent employees by 2025. Businesses that evolve their employee value proposition are far more likely to successfully attract and retain talent.
It is vital that the industry undertakes a cultural change to address widely reported concerns regarding working conditions, working hours, and crew mental health and wellbeing.

We design, deliver and facilitate an innovative range of bespoke workshops aimed at carers, employers and gatekeepers, to increase carer awareness in our industry.
Managers don’t often have awareness of carers in their workforce or know the signs to look out for when a team member may be struggling.
We provide expert lived-experience training to help you develop sustainable workplace policies in the following areas:
Review and 'carer proof' current policies and practices.
Share how to identify and engage with carers in your workplace.
Develop, support and manage staff carer support networks.
Training and supporting line managers to implement carer-friendly policies.
Signpost your employees to sources of support.
Monitor and measure outcomes.
It is so important for managers, supervisors, leaders, directors, and CEO’s to truly understand what to look out for in their teams, what to put in place and to understand how you can help to retain carers in your workplace.
These workshops last one to four hours in length and are specifically tailored for directors, managers and supervisors. We are here to support you and work with you in a way that meets your requirements and suits your needs.
Workshops can be delivered in person or online.
