A RURAL cinema company, with links to Whitchurch, has been able to employ five young people thanks to a funding grant.
With help from funding from the British Film Institute (BFI), rural cinema Flicks in the Sticks has been able to employ five young people as cultural coordinators in a bid to reach and engage new audiences through film events specifically for young adults.
Based in Whitchurch and other market towns in Shropshire and Herefordshire and also Welshpool, the coordinators aim to work closely with groups of local young people to organise film screenings for those aged between 16 and 30.
