It was such an honour to produced this spot with Amy for @barnardos_uk. The Script was based on one child’s story who was presented a life he wanted rather than the one he had caring for his mum at home. Maintaining the authenticity of real situations was so important here, right from script development and casting through to every detail during production.

It really was harrowing to learn about so many young people taking on such a huge responsibility but also amazing to pay homage to the incredible support workers, that really can change a child’s life.

Thanks to the team who made this work on such a small budget go so far for such a good cause A well Deserved Gold.
