Hi8us, Lansbury Estate
Hi8us gives young people across the UK the opportunity to gain experience of innovative media production, and a chance to tell their stories. Hi8us projects use the experience of creating media as a catalyst for changing lives.
Some of these films have been created by the trainers and support workers themselves, so that they can understand the process better and are able help others to tell their stories.
