BRITISH STUDENT FILM FESTIVAL
British Student Film Festival is looking for partnership and patronage support. The festival has a tiered sponsorship programme, ranging from Festival Sponsor to Awards Sponsor. All sponsors receive prominent logo placement on promotional print and web materials. Similarly, opportunities for further exposure can be accommodated during the festival, including the screening of adverts at subsidised rates and the distribution of promotional materials. British Student Film Festival is a national exhibition of student work in Newcastle, Liverpool, Bristol and London, to be held in April 2012. The festival holds an uncompromising stance: that every film is screened and the entry requirements must be affordable. The festival will then culminate in an awards ceremony to celebrate the students' work and the winning films are announced. "We hope to not only help those filmmakers with a desire to enter the industry as a career but also to demonstrate the creativity and vision in each student. As an inclusive festival we aim to undermine any false standards to which their creativity has previously been held - we will not grade their vision. Awards will be provided for films which are exemplary in their execution, but the festival and our board of patrons defend the creative vision of each student filmmaker as unique and unquantifiable". Full sponsorship details and benefits are available on request. Contact: Francesca Creed. Address: 46 Keyes Road, London NW2 3XA. E-mail: sponsorship@britishstudentfilm.co.uk.

THE FITS FOUNDATION
The FITS Foundation is a not-for-profit organisation created specifically to provide training and accreditation for technicians in educational establishments. FITS (Framework for ICT Technical Support) is a set of guidance processes designed to streamline ICT service management and delivery in schools. Evidence has shown that implementing FITS processes cuts the costs of ICT support provision, delivers a higher return on ICT investment and a positive impact on teaching and learning outcomes. FITS, originally developed by Becta, the government agency leading the national drive to ensure the effective and innovative use of technology throughout learning, is now managed and supported through The FITS Foundation. The FITS Foundation's goal is to provide a clear career path for ICT technicians in schools through their accreditations, both of which are internationally recognised qualifications and listed on the QCA register. The accreditations provide technicians with NVQ levels 4 and 5 qualifications. The FITS Foundation is now inviting sponsors to help them in their objectives of professionalising the technical workforce, providing improved returns on ICT investment and a positive impact on the teaching and learning experiences. Contact: Trevor Greenfield, Technical Director. Address: Pure Offices, Plato Close, Tachbrook Park, Leamington Spa, Warwickshire CV34 6WE. Tel.: 01926 800121.

STIRLING SCHOOL OF ENGLISH
"Please help the Stirling School of English to continue to offer free English Language teaching". The Stirling School of English is looking for a sponsor with an interest in increasing global understanding. The school offers free English tuition to non-English speakers. It has currently more than two hundred students from over thirty countries being taught by about twenty-five qualified volunteers in thirty different classes each week. It caters for students of all ranges of proficiency in the language, beginners to advanced. These students are here either working or studying and every part of the globe is represented in the school. The school, however, does more than teach language skills. It also helps students integrate into the community and provides social activities to reduce a sense of isolation. Uniquely amongst teaching institutions, students can join at any time during the year, so they can begin to learn the language as soon as they arrive in the area. This is particularly important in helping people integrate into the community. The school also links to employers seeking to improve the language skills of their migrant workers. "Sponsorship would enable us to maintain our free service, but also expand our activities (eg extending crèche facilities to enable more working mothers to attend), improve our premises and our training of volunteers. It would also help us commission the design of teaching materials as well as purchase computer equipment to facilitate modern learning methods. Above all, it would help produce financial stability and relieve the school from reliance on a variable grant regime, as well as enabling it to develop as a social enterprise and allow it to generate income. Sponsors would be welcome to get involved as consultants to put together a professional business plan and help the school develop in creative ways and sustain its activities into the future". Contact: Lore Kelling. Address: 7a Woodside Road, Stirling FK8 1RG. Tel.: 07817749902. E-mail: lore@stirling-school-of-english.com.

GETTING OUT OF REDUNDANCY: DOCUMENTARY
Would you be interested in sponsoring a documentary about getting out of redundancy? The documentary will combine interviews, round-table conversations, specialist opinions and the journey of three candidates - and how they successfully got out of redundancy. It will follow Carolina Rodriguez and the candidates through their differing emotional and physical journeys. The goal of the documentary is to raise awareness regarding the need for the UK to build a world class programme for people that have been made redundant or are out of work. The continued importance of redundancy awareness and the incredible opportunities that come after it will be explored visually, as well as through the words of the candidates, who will go through a coaching programme with Carolina Rodriguez during the changing process. The programme makers will educate the audience about the importance of positive thinking and the need for a defined plan. The audience will gain an understanding of the possibilities and importance of embracing change in a positive way, whilst also seeing the power of newly acquired skills taught by Carolina Rodriguez. The producers are hoping that a sponsor will be interested in sponsoring this documentary. They see a synergy and connection that would be of benefit to a sponsor, by raising the profile of the sponsor's company to the community and to the sponsor's target market. They are requesting £4,000.00 in sponsorship and in return the sponsor will receive • participation in the documentary, with the sponsor's company/organisation having the opportunity to be part of the programme (round table conversations and specialist opinions) • an association as key players for the future of the UK workforce • company logo on all printed materials • company logo and link from the programme makers' website to the sponsor's website • acknowledgement of the sponsorship in all media materials (news releases, media advisories, etc.). "The audience will benefit tremendously from your generosity. I look forward to hearing from you and thank you for considering this request". Contact: Carolina Rodriguez, Director. Address: 10 Dyke Road Avenue, Brighton BN1 5LB. Tel.: 01273 241608. E-mail: carolina@carolinardoriguez.co.uk

REDUNDANCY SERVICES
RedundancyServices.co.uk is an online resource to help individuals plan their next move, save money - and bounce back after redundancy. The site was launched to provide genuinely useful advice - and inspiration - to individuals affected by redundancy in the UK. "The government has done a great job giving people legally accurate (but ultimately fairly dry) information. The tone of the website is realistic, but upbeat. This is a niche audience who are being forced into making some big changes. We are looking for organisations that have a product or service that is genuinely helpful to this audience. For more information call Caroline Chicken or Greg Pendleton on 0117 907 3520". Contact: Caroline Chicken, Director. Address: 6 Crofton Avenue, Bristol BS7 0BP. Tel.: 0117 907 3520.
