Why I Volunteer In The NHS

Topic: Youth rights in healthcare

What we did: At The NHS Youth Forum’s quarterly meeting in Doncaster our filmmaker had probably one of the toughest briefs yet – shoot 23 films in just one day! As this was a new cohort of young people for the forum’s year ahead we organised for the filming of 22 new new recruits to give a direct-to-cam video introduction to the young people they represent. In workshop with members we then co-created this short campaign film as a useful asset for their campaigning in the month’s ahead. The film focussed on the importance of volunteering in the NHS, a topic which many in the forum had some fantastic contributions to share.

Peer Support Is My Lifeline

What we did: One sunny Saturday in the Peak District, we commenced a half day challenge with NHS Youth forum members to devise and shoot a film in one afternoon. This short film would play by scanning a QR Code on a poster we’re co-creating for them for display in hospitals, dentists and GPs surgeries. The objective of the comms is to promote the importance of young people engaging in peer support. For many young people, becoming a frequent healthcare user, can be daunting and isolating. These comms share the value of finding peer support being a top priority with messaging for young people; by young people.

Your health is in your hands

What we did: Many young people (and adults!) use the internet to try and determine an ailment when they have ill health symptoms. This often leads to false diagnoses as people land in forums or on unofficial healthcare websites. Devised and shot during a one day film residency with the NHS Youth Forum, we worked to devise three short films that would help emphasise the importance and satisfaction of receiving an official diagnoses, highlighting some of the options as to how they can do this.
