A little push to living: For my production I have chosen to show what the Bourne End Community Association does for the community and how it helps with loneliness within older people. I have chosen to address this issue because I believe it is a hidden killer within older people and something that needs to be helped with. Because it is something that older people have to deal with themselves it is never heard of so people do not ever see it is there, this is the reason behind naming it a hidden killer. The length of my production will be about 5 minutes long. I believe this will be enough time to get my point across and show both issues but also not rushing them. I will have interviews with the head of The Bourne End Community Association and also interviews from children and pensioners who spend their time there. The angle I want to take on my production is 1) to get the community aware of what the Community Association do and how they can get involved, and 2) make people aware of the growing issue of loneliness within older people and make sure they can do what they can to help their own family (and others) not suffer. I will start with an introduction, with short statements of what I am going to be talking about, and also quick clips of things that go on in the Community Centre. This will then lead into me talking about my first topic of the community center, what happens there, what they do, and how they help. This will include my interview with a child or young adult who go there and enjoy it. This will then lead me on to a quick paragraph on talking about ‘Target Magazine’ the Bourne End magazine that lets the community know what is going on, when, where and also any important information they may or may not need to know. After finishing on this I will hit my main issue of loneliness. As I’ve been able to explain the community association the viewers will have an idea of the place and what they can do, I can then go right on to talking about what they can do with older people as well, not just younger kids. I will include several (if I can) interviews of older people and what they do to keep themselves social and active within

A little push to living:

For my production I have chosen to show what the Bourne End Community Association does for the community and how it helps with loneliness within older people. I have chosen to address this issue because I believe it is a hidden killer within older people and something that needs to be helped

with. Because it is something that older people have to deal with themselves it is never heard of so people do not ever see it is there, this is

the reason behind naming it a hidden killer.

The length of my production will be about 5 minutes long. I believe this will be enough time to get my point across and show both issues but also not rushing them. I will have interviews with the head of The Bourne End Community Association and also interviews from children and pensioners who spend their time there.The angle I want to take on my production is 1) to get the community aware of what the Community Association do and how they can get involved, and 2) make people aware of the growing issue of loneliness within older people and make sure they can do what they can to help their own family (and others) not suffer.I will start with an introduction, with short statements of what I am going to be talking about, and also quick clips of things that go on in the Community Centre. This will then lead into me talking about my first topic of the community center, what happens there, what they do, and how they help. This will include my interview with a child or young adult who go there and enjoy it. This will then lead me on to a quick paragraph on talking about ‘Target Magazine’ the Bourne End magazine that lets the community know what is going on, when, where and also any important information they may or may not need to know. After finishing on this I will hit my main issue of loneliness. As I’ve been able to explain the community association the viewers will have an idea of the place and what they can do, I can then go right on to talking about what they can do with older people as well, not just younger kids. I will include several (if I can) interviews of older people and what they do to keep themselves social and active within their lives. I will end off with a brief summary of both topics letting the viewer’s then check the Centre out for themselves.My target audience for this production would be the community of Bourne End and locals surrounding the area. The first half would be reaching out to parents and kids letting them know that the community centre is a lot better than it sounds! The second half would be going out to younger adults, adults and older people who can be helped or help themselves out by going down there and joining in with what they do.I will be uploading my video to YouTube in the hope that with searches it will appear and be easily accessible. I will also talk to the head of the Association and see about getting it on the Bourne End website.
