Notice Description

The BFI is launching a new fund to support the creation of distinct, high-quality content for children and young audiences to be broadcast on UK Public Service Broadcaster services. Assigned up to PS57 million from the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) for a three year pilot, the Fund aims to stimulate the creation of high-quality content for audiences up to the age of 18 that entertains, informs and reflects their experiences of growing up across the UK today.
