Lunch and Learn: Authentic Video Storytelling for Charities

If you had access to 8000 video clips of B&NES, the South West, and wider UK, professional storytellers on call to ask video making and production skills advice, and the ability to request specific location filming ahead of when you need it, what authentic video stories would you tell, to which audiences, and why?

Our Lunch & Learn series aims to help facilitate the sharing of knowledge, experiences, and best practices across the local Third Sector. We believe that by sharing this information, we can all make a greater positive impact in our local communities. We hope that by attending these sessions, you will learn new things, get inspired, and connect with like-minded individuals locally. We also encourage you to share your own knowledge and experiences during the session, as we'll have at least 15 minutes for Q&A. Please feel free to have your lunch or grab a cuppa for this informal session.
