Chance To Talk CIC
Chance to Talk CIC creates space for individuals and organisations to talk about Mental Health through Film, Podcasts & Live Events with the help and support of our partner organisations, such as MancMade® Productions..
We’re currently seeking funding to launch the Chance To Talk Festival in 2025 and are speaking with a number of partner organisations and venues in Greater Manchester..
The ethos of Chance to Talk CIC is pretty simple. Hope through entertainment that is relevant and has heart..
A Community Interest Company (CIC) is a Limited Company that is primarily focused on benefitting the community, rather than generating profit for private shareholders.
“MancMade® Productions has a proven background of producing Films and Pod Plays® that deal directly with, or at least include, mental health related issues.
Done well, with ambition and heart, they are an effective and engaging way to start a conversation about mental health and give a voice to groups generally considered socially and/or economically isolated or hard to reach, older men especially.”
