The Rural Media Company: social inclusion
At The Rural Media Company, social inclusion is a reality, not an aspiration.
Our outreach workers enable isolated and marginalised people to take part in media projects we work with Gypsies and Travellers, people with severe learning and mental health difficulties and young people experiencing alienation and social exclusion. With our help, they have produced work of an outstandingly high standard, which has allowed their stories to be told.
We combine the power of the media with the use of accessible technology, empowering those without power to create important and influential work. Project participants often go on to become powerful advocates for their communities.
Nobody is excluded, nobody turned away. The Rural Media Company acts as a force for social inclusion, proving that everyone has a contribution to make.
We bring you the voices nobody else hears.
