INTERMISSION! More screenings after these important announcements!

Latest News: October 2002 - subtitled and audio described cinema.

Cinema access facilities have been installed, on a trial basis, in a handful of UK cinemas.

Film distributors and subtitle/description companies are producing many films that utilise these features.

Cinemas are screening many accessible shows to a very appreciative public.

Organisations representing people with sensory impairments are creating awareness and publicising shows.

Over the last few years, many, many people have been working to ensure that disabled access problems are, wherever possible, eliminated from the cinema industry before the year 2004, when the introduction of new laws will make it more difficult for UK companies to discriminate against disabled people.

The Film Council (the lottery funded body created to promote the UK film industry), are currently looking into this matter, exploring options (the trial system is not the only digital subtitling solution available), and plan to decide, later this year, whether or not to help fund the development of many accessible cinemas in the UK, using money set aside for good causes - lottery money.

The Film Council are aware that there is overwhelming demand for accessible cinema. Five million people* in the UK currently rely on subtitles daily for TV, DVD and video - they EXPECT UK cinemas to follow suit. (*RNID figures)

On a related matter, earlier this year the UK's major TV broadcasters pledged better access to their services for disabled people.

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Don't forget the national online petition...

It's been going a few years now, but there are still a few people out there who have yet to support the ongoing national petition for regular, widespread, subtitled and audio described screenings. We would like every person in the UK who would benefit from these screenings (there are millions) to join the petition.

Please add your support on the website, or simply reply to this mail with your message of support
