BOOK NOW!!! Directing Outside The Box Event - Opportunities in Branded Storytelling, Tuesday 26 November 2024, 6.30pm, London BOOK NOW!!!
The Directors Charitable Foundation (DCF) is the charity for the UK’s screen and stage directors. We have two aims:
To support and help directors in need (see Directors Support Scheme and Mental Health).
To inspire young people from all backgrounds - particularly from those who are currently under-represented in the directing profession - to consider a career as a director (see Get Directing!).
DCF is run by Trustees who are directors themselves, so we understand the needs of directors.
Times are tough for freelance directors and our industry is suffering from the legacy of COVID-19, cost of living increases and market-forces slow-down. The DCF is here to help you if you are struggling.
If you need financial help, check here to find out if you are eligible for a Directors Support Scheme (DSS) grant.
If you need wellbeing support, get details about our Directors Therapy Support (DTS) and other resources here.
If you are interested in supporting or working with young people, please click here to find out about Get Directing!.
If you would like to support our work by making a donation, click Donate to find out how you can contribute.
We are partners with two brilliant directors’ organisations: Directors UK and Stage Directors UK and we thank them for their generous support for our activities.
