IPad film making workshops were held in the Huthwaite and Stanton Hill areas with members from community groups getting involved to learn new film making skills.

This resulted in five community films being made focusing on the range of activities available in both Huthwaite and Stanton Hill.

The first of the five films – made by community groups from Stanton Hill including The Vine, Shine and Ashfield Activities Association – is online at:
