Hi Ailsa,

Good suggestion.  That immediately gets me asking questions like; what community benefits would we profile? who would the video be for (third sector or public sector)? how do you make it incisive rather than schmaltzy?

What would be really interesting would be a film about trying to MEASURE these social benefits, which shows how difficult it is to account for social impacts from SEs (but nonetheless how crucial these impacts are). 

I accept that making an engaging film about 'measurement' might not be the easiest though!

Hello Tom, i think a short film would capture the involvement of social enterrprises locally more and could be used by them to raise the profile on the additional community benefits that they deliver locally.

Hi Ailsa,

These are brilliant aren't they?  This one in particular, challenging the accepted wisdom.  I came across another a few weeks ago called 'Where good ideas come from' or something like that.  I will dig it out and post it up.

How's about an ABLSI Animate?
