Your chance to be a TV star- and we're not talking 'Surrey Hills' (it's a charitable cause!)

We are making a series of films for the University of Oxford to tie to an international study they are undertaking about attitudes towards poverty. The research, led by Professor Robert Walker, will be presented to the UN in October.

We are looking to interview a successful business family based in Guildford, who are self-motivated and embody the aspirations of modern-day society. They will have school age children who could be in private education.  We would like to interview the family – parents and children - to find out what they think it takes to be successful and to explore their views on poverty and welfare. 

About Community Channel...

At Community Channel we want you to pause for a moment and think about the world around you. We're all about inspiring you to take action on the causes and issues that matter to you. Broadcasting original programmes that showcase the work of new directors and community filmmakers, as well as the very best of terrestrial TV, Community Channel is the place for real-life stories.

Community Channel was launched in September 2000, broadcasting for three hours each day and mainly showing charity advertisements and selling charity merchandise. We've come a long way since then. From Monday 4 March 2013, Freeview viewers are now able to watch Community Channel for a longer period after our slot was extended to run between 2am-8am every morning. 

We can still be found on Freeview 87, while we continue to broadcast 24/7 on Sky 539 and Virgin 233. In addition, we will still be showing the best of our content online and on demand here at communitychannel.org.
