Small actions. Real change. This Mental Health Awareness Week, we're reminding the screen industry that while small actions matter, lasting change only happens when we act together. That's why we're asking you to take the 2026 Looking Glass Survey – the UK's only long-running study tracking mental health and wellbeing across film, TV, and cinema. Take the survey today: filmtvcharity.org.uk/research-impac… Now in its fifth iteration, Looking Glass has become far more than a snapshot. Because people continue to take part openly and honestly, it's built a trusted, industry-wide picture of how people are really doing – and where urgent change is needed. That evidence has already helped expand mental health support, tackle bullying and address workplace culture, and shape practical tools like the Whole Picture Toolkit and our Principles for Mentally Healthy Productions. So, whether you're freelance or permanent, working on set, in post, in an office, or in a cinema – your experience matters. ✅ 10 minutes ✅ Completely anonymous ✅ Industry-wide impact This Mental Health Awareness Week, take one small action to make a collective difference. 👉 Take the 2026 Looking Glass Survey – now live. filmtvcharity.org.uk/research-impac… #mentalhealthawarenessweek #MHAW2026

The Minister said: "The screen sector is delivering real economic impact, generating more than £477 million for the local economy in just four years, supporting high-value employment, skills development, attracting international investment and strengthening our global competitiveness. Many of us will be familiar with the productions supported by Northern Ireland Screen. We can be rightly proud of the role we play on the global stage. “This new strategy sets to build on that success and sets out a clear and ambitious pathway to grow the screen industries as a key driver of a more productive, sustainable and inclusive economy. “I am particularly encouraged by the strategy’s focus on innovation, skills development and all-Ireland collaboration, as well as its commitment to ensuring that the benefits of growth are widely shared, including through support for language, culture and heritage.” Read more northernirelandscreen.co.uk/news/northern-…
