Mark Milsome Foundation
Non-profit Organizations
A charity organisation working with young people in the British TV & Film industry.
About us
We are inspired by the achievements, character and unique nature of Mark Milsome who was killed whilst filming a car stunt in Ghana 18th November 2017. As a charitable organisation we will encourage and support young people whom we believe display the qualities needed to thrive in the British Film and Television industry. The Foundation will look for evidence of genuine passion and a strong work ethic from applicants before considering anyone to be deserving of support or scholarships in Mark’s name. With a focus on gaining access to the film and television industries either from obscurity or through a recognized educational programme, the Foundation will help successful applicants overcome the challenges of finding work experience, mentorship and eventual employment in an industry that is traditionally difficult to access without the benefit of insider contacts. As an organisation we are open to exploring other areas including health and safety and seeking to evolve in any way that best serves the scholars, the film and television Industries and the memory of Mark Milsome.

We would like to extend a big thank you to Tamana Bleasdale and Vicki Allen at CallTime for kindly offering their excellent CallTime Ready course free of charge to our current MMF trainees, Codie Rees and Henry Piekarczyk! CallTime is a diary service and training provider that offers trainee schemes for new entrants into the industry. To find out more please click link https://lnkd.in/e2FPshUg In the words of our trainees: "The Calltime course was an excellent, well-rounded introduction to many important aspects of the industry. It really provides a comprehensive understanding of the responsibilities of a PA. You should be incredibly proud of the program! Sticking is the only criticism! (poor joke, I’m sorry). I particularly enjoyed the sections on CV and interview preparation, as well as section five, which covered dialogue and equipment. There’s so much terminology to absorb that I may need to cover my walls with post-it notes just to keep it all in mind!" Henry Piekarczyk "Thank you again for providing access to such a wonderful course. It was truly eye-opening, and I learned a lot, which makes me feel more confident going forward. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for clear insight into starting out in the industry. I particularly enjoyed the call sheet breakdown, CV breakdown, and the overview of the different roles on set. I never knew there were various types of PAs before! It’s also extremely handy to have PDF files of each section to keep for reference as we prepare for upcoming filming jobs." Codie Rees Codie Rees Henry Piekarczyk CALLTIME COMPANY RECRUITMENT LIMITED

The Foundation is excited to announce that we have expanded our Board of Trustees and created a new Advisory Council. Following the success of MMF’s 'Get Involved' campaign, which encouraged individuals to volunteer their services and expertise, MMF is pleased to announce several new appointments aimed at enhancing on-set safety and wellbeing for all cast and crew, and nurturing the next generation of filmmaking talent.
