‘Was not Heard’

Young People have the right to be listened to, and taken seriously.

The Multi-Agency Learning and Development Group are pleased to announce the release of a short film advocating the right of children to be heard and the duty of those working with them to act.

The film was originally conceived by five groups of young people from around Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland. Their ideas were then taken and a script was written again – by a young person. This was then made into a film with the support of Leicester City Participation Service and Badshoes Film and with performances by young actors. The film was funded by NHS England and the Safeguarding Children’s Partnership (Board)s of Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland.

The virtual premiere took place on the 11th July 2020 to an invited audience and the film is now available to public here.
