Sex Factor
Call for a production company
Sex Factor – A project through which people with learning disabilities can increase their knowledge and understanding of personal wellbeing and relationships through film.
Poole Forum, a speaking-up group run for and by people with learning disabilities in Poole, wishes to recruit a production company. The company will work with a group of 6 actors with learning disabilities to create a short interactive DVD. The DVD will form the central part of a resource pack that will address key issues around personal wellbeing and relationships, and in particular the areas of relationships, sex and sexuality. The production company will take as its starting point a research report (available December 2009), and will strictly follow and adhere to its recommendations.
