Do you have stars in your eyes?

The University of West London are looking for actors to play the parts of family carers and NHS ward staff working on dementia inpatient wards. They are making a series of short films based on real experiences of people affected by dementia.

Or apply by emailing rosie.dunn@uwl.ac.uk.

The films are being produced as part of a research project called FIND ME and will be used to highlight the experiences of family carers of people with dementia, as well as ward staff who care for them. They will also be used to support education and training for health and social care professionals.

Previous acting experience is welcome but not essential – enthusiasm and reliability are most important.

Location: filming takes place in Harrow and Ealing.

Dates: Friday 7th August and Saturday 8th August

Time: approximately 1-2 hours

Fee: this is an unpaid opportunity, travel expenses will be paid for and booked by UWL.

This is an opportunity to contribute to meaningful research while helping bring authentic lived experiences to life on screen.
