We would like to help those who learn and those who teach. Our wellbeing business plan extends to helping and supporting our friends and partners who also aim to be part of the move towards wellbeing for everyone – we have a range of ways in which we can help you. One of those is an Education Project. We believe that the universities and colleges of Lambeth and Southwark are strong deliverers on the Wellbeing agenda – they offer connectivity, activity and learning and their students are excellent and regular volunteers. We are very keen to develop programmes that help support the work of universities and colleges in the area.

The Cinema Museum houses a range of archives, collections and screening and event facilities. We want to work with others to maximise their potential to educators and to those who want to learn. We have a volunteering programme where we teach basics of events management and technical screening – but the educational projects take our ambitions to the next level.

How it Works

• If you are a student – just get in touch and let us know the name of the head of department at your university or college and we will do the rest (we only work with students aged 16 or over).
• If you are a university or college and interested in working with us we can offer masters and PhD research opportunities, student project opportunities and student volunteering opportunities. We work at the level of department heads – we will give you a tour of the museum, talk through the types of projects you would be interested in, understand how we can align our interests and our timings and we will set up a pilot project with your organisation. We will work through the pilot project together to overcome any challenges – the plan being to develop a longer term relationship whereby you have annual student opportunities available to your students that are of high quality and practised reliability.
