This fund is designed to help film and television production companies that are unable to obtain coronavirus insurance recommence their activities.
The Culture Secretary, Nadine Dorries, has announced a six month extension to the UK-wide Film and TV Restart Scheme to enable approximately 400 additional productions to benefit from its support. The £500 million programme opened last year and has already supported 835 productions working across the UK, protecting over 70,000 jobs and £2.3 billion of production spend.
