Grants, Donations & Sponsorship

We are very proud of our supporters. One of the things the festival tries to do is to involve local businesses, charities, trade unions and individuals, providing them with an opportunity to publicly declare their support for LGBTQ+ communities, working with the film festival which is completely organised by unpaid volunteers.

All the income from ticket sales is kept by the venues we use: the Old Market Hall, Shrewsbury and Kinokulture, Oswestry, on the basis that we do not pay to use the premises or for their staff costs. At other venues we simply pay their hire charge. We finance the film licences, all promotional materials/events, advertising and other costs e.g. expenses associated with Q and A sessions with film makers, from sponsorships, individual donations and grants.

For the 2021 Festival we are very pleased to have received a grant from Film Hub Midlands
