Going
Places
North East Screen is dedicated to encouraging equality, diversity and inclusivity in the screen industries and supplying opportunities that support the creation of a workforce that reflects the diversity of the UK. We also believe that socioeconomic or geographical barriers should not hold you back.
Going Places is a bursary fund which supports travel and accommodation costs, as well as training and some additional expenses, for North East based professionals working in film and TV who need to travel outside their usual area in order to overcome geographical barriers.
The fund supports North East based professionals who have secured short-term unpaid work experience, trainee placements, stepping up opportunities, training, networking opportunities and interviews held outside of the North East.
Awards are assessed on a case-by-case basis and are made at the discretion of North East Screen.
How do I apply?

What do we not fund?
Going Places cannot support fully paid employment or costs that fall outside the fund’s criteria. Full details of exclusions are outlined in the Going Places Guidance & Terms.
