Congratulations to our patron, Kirk Jones, who recently wrapped on the feature film ‘I Swear’ which he both co-produced and directed. The film tells the inspiring story of Tourette’s Syndrome campaigner, John Davidson.
Kirk is pictured above with the crew from ‘I Swear’, all of whom are wearing our Foundation hoodies!
The crew also completed our ScreenSkills Level 2 Production Safety Passport course before production commenced!

The Foundation is delighted to announce that the new Foot in the Door (FITD) trainees will be Henry Piekarczyk and Codie Rees.👏 Selected from a shortlist of seven candidates, who were interviewed at Panavision on 7th August, Henry is a graduate of the University of Hertfordshire and Codie from the University of Falmouth.
The FITD programme is particularly focused on providing opportunities for students from challenging or disadvantaged backgrounds who might find it difficult to access the film and television industry under normal circumstances.
FITD is a one-year mentorship programme designed to bridge the gap between full-time education and employment in the film and television industry.
Starting in September 2024, Henry and Codie will receive a full first-aid training day, as well as complete the MMF Production Safety Passport. Each trainee will be assigned a mentor and receive advice and support from established crew members. Additionally, site visits and workshops will be organised with top camera and technical houses, and support and guidance will be provided by the Foundation throughout the year.
Please do get in touch if you’re interested in mentoring one of our trainees.

Read all about the ScreenSkills Production Safety Passport (PSP) scheme and its recent survey findings, which highlight the importance of the PSP in the industry.
Administered by ScreenSkills, the scheme is designed to enhance safety for both crew and management by ensuring access to high-quality health and safety training. It also provides freelancers with a certificate valid for five years, allowing them to demonstrate their qualifications across different productions. To read the full article click link in bio.
Supporting the PSP is crucial for ensuring industry-wide awareness and consistent safety standards on UK productions.
The Foundation’s ScreenSkills Level 2 Production Safety Passport is an excellent course within this scheme, providing a solid foundation in basic health and safety training. If you haven’t taken our course yet, please do so by clicking the link in our bio. 🙏
