Earlier this year, Bristol Surf Cinema launched its very first event – a night dedicated to celebrating surf storytelling on the big screen. What started as a small, DIY project to bring people together around meaningful surf films quickly grew into something bigger, with almost 250 people buying for the inaugural screening in April.
The idea was simple: create a space to showcase surf films that go beyond the highlight reels, beyond the big brand edits – stories that dig into the social, political, and environmental threads woven through surf culture.
As a camera assistant working in film and TV and a lifelong surfer, I (Theo) set out to build something that connected those two worlds. In a time when the industry was unusually quiet, Bristol Surf Cinema gave me a creative project to get stuck into and a chance to pour energy into something that mattered. It was also a way to genuinely support filmmakers, every film we screen is fully licensed and paid for, and £1 from every ticket is donated to The Wave Project to help fund surf therapy for young people in the UK.
But perhaps what stood out most from the first event was how the Bristol surf community (and the wider ocean-loving crowd) showed up. Feedback from the night wasn’t just about the films, it was about the feeling in the room. People supported the event and made it clear they would like to see more. They wanted a space where all surf stories could be told, with better representation, better balance, and an even stronger connection to the community.
That’s where our second event comes in. On Saturday 12th July at Watershed Bristol, Bristol Surf Cinema returns with a matinee screening of Point of Change, a powerful documentary by acclaimed director Rebecca Coley. The film tells the story of Nias, Indonesia – a surf paradise that was ‘discovered’ in the 1970s and the environmental and cultural impact that unfolded for the local community as surf tourism in that area grew.
It’s a film that makes you think about the consequences of surf tourism — and we’re lucky to have Rebecca joining us on the day for a Q&A to explore those themes in more depth. Rebecca will be answering questions on her filmmaking process, handling delicate themes within documentary and the impact of tourism on the earth and native communities.
Alongside the feature, we’ll also be screening two UK-made short films:
Surfaced by Paul Stevenson, telling the story of Nick Corkill’s journey through addiction and mental health, and the grounding role that surfing and photography play in that journey.
Seb: A Surf Therapy Journey by Matilda Thompson, a beautifully observed short following a young surfer with ADHD and autism as he experiences surf therapy with The Wave Project Bristol.
For those who can’t make the main event, we’ll also be running a catch-up screening on Wednesday 16th July — same films, just without the Q&A.
Both events will offer the opportunity for networking and drinks at the Watershed bar after the event so you can minglew with like-minded film or ocean enthusiasts.
Bristol Surf Cinema was never meant to be a one-off. The ambition is to keep this platform going – to continue curating thoughtful, story-first surf films and to keep building a space where filmmakers feel supported and audiences feel connected.
Looking ahead, there are exciting plans for a national tour to bring these kinds of surf screenings to other UK cities and coastal towns. The vision is to grow Bristol Surf Cinema into a national platform, while always staying true to the ethos: supporting independent surf filmmaking, elevating underrepresented voices, and creating community-led spaces where ocean & surf centred stories, of all kinds, can be seen, heard, and shared.
Want to come along?
Tickets for the July screenings are available now via the Watershed website: https://www.watershed.co.uk/whatson/13320/bristol-surf-cinema-point-of-change

Bristol-made podcast, High Notes, returns on Monday 30th June, as it continues conversations around the art and business of voice, featuring the voice actors, directors and creatives who make it all happen.
Host Melissa Thom brings insightful conversations, illuminating perspectives and plenty of behind the scenes moments from the worlds of gaming and animation.
With six new episodes dropping every week, each lasting around thirty minutes, the podcast shines a light on the world of voice acting, for anyone who is already working in, hoping to break into, or simply fascinated by the business. The new series features professionals working in high level casting, voice acting and directing across AAA games.
Melissa Thom is an acclaimed voice actor with decades of experience voicing projects including Grand Theft Auto V for Rockstar Games, Elder Scrolls for Zenimax, LL COOL J, Google, Amazon, Nike and many more.

The first episode of the new season kicks off with a conversation with Kate Hansen-Birnbaum, Casting Director at Pixar, whose credits include animated films including Inside Out 2, Soul, Elemental and Luca.
Kate shares her unconventional path into casting, which began at a San Francisco talent agency under the mentorship of seasoned actors. She offers a rare look inside Pixar’s intricate casting process, highlighting the value placed on authenticity, natural vocal tone and the ability to truly inspire the animation team. The conversation touches on Pixar’s commitment to diverse and inclusive casting, including their practice of anonymised auditions to help reduce unconscious bias.
The full line up of episodes and release dates are as follows:
30/06/2025 – The Magic of Pixar: Voice Casting with Kate Hansen-Birnbaum

Melissa is joined by five-time Emmy-nominated voice actor Bob Bergen, best known as the voice of Porky Pig – a role he’s brought to life for over 30 years.
Melissa Thom, High Notes’ host, said: “This season we’ll be lifting the curtain to reveal the reality of working within gaming and animation. Some key players in the business have shared their perspectives and experience to help the next generation of voice acting talent to break through. The voice acting world can seem like a mysterious closed shop, but the aim of High Notes is to demystify and remove barriers for those who would love to know more about this fascinating business.”
High Notes can be found at www.brava.uk.com/podcast and on all major podcast platforms.
Season 3 will be released later in 2025 and will focus on BRAVA Business and its corporate offering – how professionals can use their voice for impactful communication in the workplace and beyond.
BRISTOL — Torchbox Public, the public sector division of digital agency Torchbox, has been awarded a contract to develop and implement a new intranet for Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust, one of the UK’s largest and busiest NHS trusts.
The project will transform internal communications across the Trust by providing one easy-to-use, fully accessible digital space for staff to connect and find essential information across all hospital locations and on any device. The new platform will serve over 23,600 staff across multiple sites, including five hospitals and 23 local community health centres.
Guy’s and St Thomas’ currently has two different intranet sites and wants to support all staff by creating one consistent experience. The new intranet will make it quicker to access the information they need, and reinforce that, despite the Trust’s size, staff are part of one organisation with shared values and a reputation for clinical excellence, high-quality teaching, and research.
“We’re a diverse and welcoming organisation, which is incredibly proud of our staff and the dedication they show to our patients and each other. We’re creating this new intranet to make it easier for everyone to connect and access the information they need to deliver the high-quality and compassionate care we are known for” said Lindsay Gormley, Head of digital and content at Guy’s and St Thomas’.
The new intranet will be built on Wagtail NHS Intranet, an open-source platform developed by Torchbox specifically for NHS organisations. This innovative solution was made possible through the initial support of Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and continues to evolve through collaborations with other trusts, including Gloucestershire NHS.
The solution builds on successful implementations for multiple healthcare providers, where the intranet has improved staff communication, information access, and operational efficiency while eliminating ongoing license fees.
Key features of the new intranet will include:
“We’re honoured to partner with Guy’s and St Thomas’ on this transformative project,” said Ben Heasman, Client Partner, Torchbox. “Our experience creating digital platforms for NHS organisations has shown us how a well-designed intranet can break down barriers, improve efficiency, and ultimately contribute to better patient care. We look forward to delivering a solution that will serve the Trust’s diverse workforce and support its vital work.”
The project will take a phased approach, with initial discovery and design work already underway.
Guy’s and St Thomas’ provides 2.8 million patient contacts in acute and specialist hospital services and community services every year. The Trust includes Guy’s Hospital, St Thomas’ Hospital, Evelina London Children’s Hospital, Royal Brompton Hospital, Harefield Hospital, and adult and children’s community services in Lambeth and Southwark
As one of the biggest NHS trusts in the UK, with an annual turnover of £2.9 billion, Guy’s and St Thomas’ employ around 23,600 staff. www.guysandstthomas.nhs.uk
Guy’s and St Thomas’ is part of King’s Health Partners Academic Health Sciences Centre (AHSC), a collaboration between King’s College London, and Guy’s and St Thomas’, King’s College Hospital and South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trusts. www.kingshealthpartners.org
Torchbox Public is a specialised division of Torchbox that partners with public sector organisations to tackle complex challenges through progressive, collaborative approaches.
As a certified B Corporation and 100% employee-owned business, Torchbox brings together a diverse team of over 120 digital specialists committed to creating inclusive, accessible, and sustainable digital solutions. The company has delivered transformative digital projects for leading organisations across healthcare, charity, and cultural sectors, including Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, Samaritans, Mind, Children’s Health Ireland, the Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB), and London Museum.

Open to third-year design students in the South West and Wales, the South West Design + Digital Student Awards is an annual competition that champions commercial thinking in creative higher education.
Hosted by Bristol-based creative agency Proctor + Stevenson, the Awards have been inspiring students to make and submit exciting, commercially viable work since 1986.
With categories for Graphic Design, Digital Design, and Video & Motion Graphics (including 3D and CGI), these awards can really kick-start design careers.
Entries close on midnight on Friday 13th June 2025 so hurry and enter, or share this with any students you know who could be crowned the next Ultimate Creative Champion!
The South West Design + Digital Student Awards were launched by P+S founder Roger Proctor MBE as part of his ongoing campaign to tackle how institutions approach design education.
Previous winners include Charles Golding – Senior Creative at Hello Charlie (now a regular on the SWDDS Awards judging panel) and Emily Hawkins, who went on to start her career by winning an internship at P+S. The internship led on to a full-time position in the Proctors Studio back in 2022, and she is now Digital Designer at Inside Travel Group.
And the coveted paid design internship isn’t the only prize on offer. Students could win up to £2,000.
“Finalists of the SWDDS Awards join an elite group of graphic and digital designers, animators and film-makers, many of whom have gone on to become leaders of our industry.
“And that’s’ why the Awards are so special. They’re not just a celebration of outstanding creativity. They’re a genuine opportunity for the best talent in our region to begin their professional journeys.”
Ailsa Billington
Managing Director, Proctor + Stevenson
Finalists will be asked to present their work to a friendly panel of esteemed judges, including Bristol Creative Industries’ Membership Manager Alli Nicholas, before attending the awards ceremony.
Students, what are you waiting for? Find out more and enter now.
UWE Bristol will host Showcase, its annual degree show, in June, offering visitors the opportunity to discover a new generation of talent from the College of Arts, Technology and Environment.
More than 1200 students from over 40 courses will exhibit their work at Bower Ashton, Arnolfini, Spike Island and the university’s Frenchay Campus from Thursday 5 June until Wednesday 11 June.
An annual highlight for the university and the city of Bristol, members of the public are invited to attend the free, in-person exhibitions which will include a selection of undergraduate and postgraduate work from animation, architecture, art, creative technologies, design, engineering, fashion, filmmaking, media, performance, photography, product design and writing.
Elena Marco, Pro-Vice Chancellor and Head of College of Arts, Technology and Environment said: “Each year, I’m blown away by the sheer creativity, ambition, and depth of thinking shown by our students. Their work reflects not only visionary talent, but also a deep engagement with the challenges and possibilities of the world around them.
“Showcase 2025 isn’t just a celebration of student achievement – it’s a testament to the passion, expertise, and dedication of the incredible staff who support, guide, and inspire them every step of the way. It promises to be a bold, joyful, and unmissable event – don’t miss it.”
Several of this year’s exhibiting students have drawn inspiration from their own experiences, bringing a personal dimension to their final projects.
Iside Buraga is a BA (Hons) Fashion Textiles student whose designs are influenced by her involvement with the Bristol Northern Soul Club; this has been a catalyst for her creative exploration of subcultures and storytelling through fashion.
Issi said: “My involvement with Northern Soul has made me consider the experiences and emotions that lead people to dress and portray themselves in a certain way. It can be extravagant or covert, and sometimes obscure in a similar way to music.”
Her final project explores the tension between external presentation and internal emotion, drawing on themes of female identity, deviancy, and vulnerability. The dress she’s designed incorporates found and gifted materials, emphasising hand-finished details and hidden elements to reflect the invisible stories within garments and people.
Solomon Khimba, is a BEng (Hons) Architecture and Environmental Engineering student. His final project addresses the rights of nomadic people to a political voice, by creating an architectural design for a dual-purpose building in St Pauls. The concept combines a circus venue with a political forum, inspired by his own experience of living in a van as a child and the plight of Bristol’s Invisible Circus, which vacated its city centre premises due to plans for redevelopment.
Drawing on the traditions of travelling and circus communities, the building aims to give access and visibility to those communities who might feel excluded from civic participation.
“The idea is to bring together an entertainment aspect, drawing people into the building to see the circus, but also to drive connection with politics,” said Solomon. “Having a connection between these really different groups of people would hopefully have an impact on the ideas and choices that they both make.”
Kalli Montigue, a BA (Hons) Product Design student, has designed ‘PupPulse’, a concept for a smart dog-harness and collar combined with a mobile app to provide reactive dog owners with wellbeing data and insights. These are collected by health metric sensors fitted within the harness and an AI analysis within the app to help them track stress patterns and behaviour trends.
Kalli said: “I was inspired by my sister’s experience with her reactive dog and my research has shown how common and complex dog behavioural issues can be. PupPulse could offer owners trustworthy data, a relatable community, and accessible support, to help them understand and manage their dog’s reactivity with confidence.”
And MA Architecture students, who were recently longlisted in The Davidson Prize, will exhibit their project ‘Growing Places’. The competition seeks inventive design proposals to transform any site in the UK into a ‘cohesive and integrated’ community of at least 300 new homes; this year’s theme is Streets Ahead: The Race to Build 1.5M Homes.
UWE Bristol broadcast journalism and media production students are also working with the university’s New Wave Creative Agency to produce a one-hour radio show for Ujima Radio, exploring the build up to the Showcase for School of Arts students. The special show will be broadcast at 1pm on 2 June.
More information on how to visit Showcase is available on the UWE Bristol website.
For those who can’t make it in person, a digital showcase is available to view online and features exciting work from hundreds of graduating students from 40 programmes. Designed to celebrate new talent and support professional practice, enterprise and employability, each graduate has curated their own portfolio with links to their own sites and social channels.

The cost-of-living crisis in the UK is still hitting both businesses and their employees hard. As operational costs rise and consumers tighten their belts, businesses face the dual challenge of maintaining profitability while ensuring their staff are adequately compensated.
The key is to empower your employees. In the midst of the escalating cost-of-living crisis, new research reveals a stark reality: One example…87% of hospitality workers’ mental health is worsening because of financial concerns, exacerbating an already challenging situation. With wages stagnating and essential expenses on the rise, workers face mounting challenges, including housing and food insecurity, limiting their ability to save and thrive. According to recent studies, nearly 60% of workers struggle with financial stress, with over 40% citing it as a major concern affecting their overall wellbeing.
Amidst these challenges, one pioneering solution that has emerged is Earned Wage Access, which revolutionises the traditional pay cycle by providing instant access to earned wages, empowering employees to navigate their financial obligations with newfound flexibility and control.
By eliminating the need to wait for payday, new employee benefits providers enable workers to address immediate expenses without resorting to high-interest loans, thereby alleviating financial stress and promoting overall wellbeing.
Recent user surveys conducted by one industry provider underscore this impact, with 92% feeling more in control of their money thanks to Earned Wage Access and 88% being more likely to stay working at their current employer when this benefit is offered.
Another key solution is supporting workers with financial wellbeing benefits and education to reduce financial stress and help them better manage their finances.
These can take many forms such as personalised educational resources, financial coaching, money management tools, employee discounts, and flexible pay options, among other things.
PwC revealed that financially stressed employees are 5 times more likely to be distracted at work, highlighting the potential productivity gains for employers. By investing in these programs, hospitality companies can therefore enhance both employee wellbeing and operational resilience.
Another key focus are smart budgeting strategies which can significantly benefit companies during the cost-of-living crisis. By regularly monitoring expenses, implementing energy efficiency measures, optimising inventory management, adjusting staffing levels based on seasonal demand, and negotiating bulk purchasing agreements, companies can reduce operational costs and improve financial stability.
For employees, smart budgeting strategies are equally crucial. Creating a detailed monthly budget, setting aside an emergency fund, prioritising debt reduction, automating savings, and utilising employee discounts can help workers manage their finances more effectively. These practices reduce financial stress, increase disposable income, and provide a buffer against rising living costs, ultimately fostering a more engaged and productive workforce.
Where do you start? Well, you can talk to professionals such as myself who mitigate these employee risks…or if nothing else have a look at the Government website www.moneyhelper.org.uk where you can find simple and straightforward with tools to direct your employees.
