Nomination for The Smiley Charity Film Awards

A film produced by our agency, promoting the work of Mountbatten Hospices, has been shortlisted to win a prestigious award.

The Smiley Charity Film awards - dubbed the Oscars of charity film - is the world’s biggest campaign to promote cause-based films.

Mountbatten Chief Executive, Nigel Hartley, said: “Being selected to be a finalist is a real coup for Mountbatten’s team, and winning would showcase our work on an international stage.”

The film is shortlisted alongside national charities Greenpeace UK, Teenage Cancer Trust, and Solace Woman’s Aid, amongst others, in the long-form category for organisations with a turnover of £5-20 million.

A panel of high-profile and influential people from the worlds of fundraising, politics, business, entertainment, and media will judge each film and decide on a winner in each category.

The finalists in each category can also win a ‘People’s Choice’ award, which is decided by a public vote.

We encourage you to get behind this local hospice and vote for Mountbatten. “By voting and sharing, more people will see the work we do to care for patients and families and be inspired to support us. Mountbatten is facing a huge increase in the need for our services and, like many people, a significant rise in our costs."

“Opportunities like this help share our message far and wide - more people need our help than ever before, and we cannot afford to ignore anyone.”

“Please vote for our film and continue supporting Mountbatten in any way you can so that we will still be here for you and your loved ones when you need us. Thank you.”

Voting closes on Friday, 10 March, and the winners will be announced at a red-carpet ceremony at the iconic ODEON Luxe cinema in Leicester Square, London, on 21 March.
