Story

Our firm's chosen 'Charity of the Year' will directly support a number of aspiring screenwriters and producers once they have graduated from the National Film & Television School (NFTS) through income support and mentorship.

L&T will be running a variety of fundraising activities for this campaign until 31 March 2022.  Our trek in the South Downs will take place in September 2021 and we will use a separate page to focus our trek fundraising.  Thank you for your support!
