Substandard treatment at the silver-screen for wheelchair-users is an archaic notion that still affects many cinema-goers in 2011. The Muscular Dystrophy Campaign Trailblazers, a group of disabled young people campaigning on social issues, have launched their findings on a report into cinema access for wheel-chair users, with appallingly disappointing results.

Dozens of high-profile British actors have condemned the proposed attack on the UK Film Council.

The head of AusFilm has indicated that the Australian film industry may try to usurp the UK if arts funding is slashed.

The UK Film Council will meet Government representatives today to discuss the debate over its closure.

Daniel Barber, the Oscar-nominated director of Michael Caine crime flick Harry Brown, has applauded Best For Film’s campaign to defend the UKFC.

If the government won’t defend the arts, who will? Best For Film, that’s who! We’re mounting a campaign to protect the vital work of the UK Film Council, and we need YOUR support.
