The event – led by Freeman, Engagement Producer for both The Film and TV Charity and at Bristol’s BBC Studios – looked at how TV productions can become more mentally healthy.

In 2022, 29% of respondents said they had considered taking their own life during the year. “That’s almost one in three people,” Freeman pointed out. “We’re all bound to know someone.”

The Film and TV Charity offers a range of support to help combat this crisis, including a free 24-hour support line, grants and financial advice.
