Show the Age of Stupid and raise money for P&P
The fantastic climate change film is now available for groups to screen to raise awareness and, most importantly, raise money for P&P
The Age of Stupid is a fantastic film looking at the devastating impacts of climate change happening right now, but with a powerful twist.
It’s been in cinemas for over a month, but now you and your P&P group can easily hold a screening of the film before it even comes out on DVD. Show it in-between exams as a relaxing and fun activity to help people de-stress.
Your screening will be a great awareness raising activity for your climate change campaigns, but more importantly, it’s a great way to raise cash for P&P. After a long year of campaigning, this would be a great way for you to raise a bit of dosh to help pay for next year’s support and materials.
There’s a very easy to use guide to putting your screening on available right from the team who made the film.
Tips for success
Make sure you cover all your costs and then some. There’s no point holding a fundraiser that doesn’t raise any funds!
Tie-up with your uni film society - they’ll have the know how and a mailing list of people
Entice people (and make more money) by offering snacks and drinks for sale
Get someone from the group to speak at the end. Make sure they’ve seen the film beforehand so they know what they’re going to say.
Advertise everywhere and anywhere. It’s better to turn people away than not have enough there.
When you apply for the license, make sure you select the right type of group. If you end up being charged over £75 you’ve probably chosen the wrong one.
