Falling Without a Net

A powerful short film exploring how charities support people with learning disabilities and families in crisis.

Falling Without a Net

Falling without a net is a short film set in Edinburgh exploring the support charities offer to people with intellectual disabilities on the brink of crisis. This work is set within the current climate of funding cuts which reduce services and leave already disadvantaged people more vulnerable. The film is co-produced with people who have lived experience of using and needing these services. The film depicts a family experiencing a crisis and how they cope with and without the support of third sector input.

After the short film, there will be a Q&A where the audience is invited to ask questions and talk together about the film.

This film is brough to you by Edinburgh Napier University, Family Advice and Information Resource and Voyage Care.

The event is being held at North Edinburgh Arts. If you have any questions about accessibility, feel free to check out their website for more details.
