Some of the biggest support behind came from Lancashire Police & Lancashire Police and Crime Commissioner in collaboration with The Prosper Partnership.

From transporting cast, crew and equipment across multiple shoot days, to giving us access, guidance and support throughout production.

This film was created to spark conversations around exploitation, pressure, consequence and the realities some young people face, and having real support behind the message made a huge difference.

These weren’t just organisations attached to the project. They were there with us boots on the ground, every step of the way. 💪🏼
