Bus Stop Films is a pioneering, disability-led not-for-profit transforming lives through filmmaking. Since 2009, we have provided people with disability and other under-represented communities with hands-on training, inclusive film programs, and pathways into the screen industry. Our mission goes beyond teaching technical skills, we create a supportive, creative community where participants connect, collaborate, and tell their own stories.
Through our programs, participants gain confidence, develop professional skills, and access meaningful employment opportunities in the film and media industry. By showcasing diverse voices on screen, we challenge stereotypes, shift public perceptions, and foster a more inclusive cultural landscape.
Your support is essential in helping us continue this work. Funding allows us to expand programs nationally, provide accessible equipment and training, and offer scholarships and mentorship opportunities. It enables participants to engage fully in filmmaking, connect with industry professionals, and bring their stories to audiences through screenings, festivals, and digital platforms.
Every contribution helps us create more opportunities for people often excluded from the screen industry. By supporting Bus Stop Films, you are investing in a more inclusive media landscape, empowering individuals to tell their stories, develop skills, and gain employment. Together, we can transform lives, challenge perceptions, and ensure the screen industry reflects the rich diversity of our communities.
