The Film and Television Charity

The Film and Television Charity, formerly the CTBF (Cinema and Television Benevolent Fund), is the leading UK charity for people working behind the scenes in the film, cinema and television industries, whose careers cover all aspects of pre-production and beyond, from script to screen and in a variety of roles.

The charity owns the trademark for the Royal Film Performance, an event that has previously been attended by HM The Queen or other members of the British Royal Family, and from membership subscriptions and donations.

As well as helping those who have worked in the screen industries, the charity also supports up and coming talent via grant funds such as the JBAs (John Brabourne Awards), which provides financial assistance of between £1000 and £5000.
