Bringing the screen industry together to share knowledge, build on what works and create healthier, more sustainable ways of working.
SPACES connects people, expertise and ideas to help improve welfare and psychological health across the screen industries.
The Screen Practice, Advocacy, Culture & Ethics Society (SPACES) brings together welfare professionals, production companies, broadcasters and industry partners to improve wellbeing across the screen industries. We share knowledge, champion best practice and work together to drive meaningful, systemic change creating healthier, safer and more sustainable working cultures for everyone.
Across the screen industries, many productions and individuals are already working hard to look after the people they work with. Welfare is increasingly recognised as an important part of good production, and there is a growing community of people bringing expertise, care and new ideas to this work.
But production is complex, fast-moving and different every time. Finding the right support, knowing what works and embedding good welfare consistently can be challenging, particularly when teams are working under pressure.
SPACES brings people together to share what we’re learning, build on what already works and develop practical approaches that can work across different types of screen production.
