Inside Out DVD's

Brandon Trust now has four short films about what is happening at Brandon Trust. They were filmed at the Eden Project in Cornwall but they are not about the Eden Project; at heart each of these films simply connect to the current issues that are real for people with learning disabilities today.

The films are:

  • Brandon Inside Out In Eden: This gives you a visual journey around Brandon's Conference at the Eden Project.

  • Inside Out Workshops: Find out about Assistive Technology and People with Profound Learning Disabilities or learn about the work of the User Forums, check out Supported Employment.

  • Inside Out Stories: This is where the people we support tell their own stories in the way they want to tell them.

  • Inside Out Brandon Trust: Want to find out what some of the Directors and Managers are saying? Here's your opportunity.

    How we hear YOU!

    Brandon Trust believes it is really important that people with learning disabilities regularly get their own voices heard. In Gloucester, Bristol, North Somerset and Cornwall we hold monthly meetings where people we support get together to talk about the things that matter to them.  This picture shows the notes from the Cornwall Tenants Forum meeting held on 12th February in Bodmin.  There is lots of information on the wall-chart because it was a busy meeting.  All Area Forums are involved in making stuff happen.  Contact Brandon Trust in your area to find out more.
