BCHA have been involved with the filming of a unique short documentary film, The Big Society: A View from the Frontline, commissioned by the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation.

Gulbenkian Foundation Director, Andrew Barnett said: "We have heard a lot from policy makers and thinkers about the Big Society but very little from those who are working on the ground and the beneficiaries of their work. Five very diverse civil society organisations were asked: How do they connect to their communities? What do they think the Big Society means? What is their contribution to - and their big ask of - the Big Society?"

BCHA were one of the organisations asked to contribute their views of the Big Society. Click here to watch Sarah Ward, our Homelessness and Substance Misuse Manager and hear what BCHA ask of the Big Society.
