Hello,


We are some local filmmakers and we are making a short comedy about warring neighbours, parking spaces and Brexit Britain.


Our film is called 'Huntington Gardens' and centres around three families as they each battle to get the best parking spots on their residential street. It's a film about British values, absurdity and parking spaces.

It's a short film which demonstrates a microcosm of Brexit, the absurdity and misplaced anger, as families from different cultural backgrounds battle it out for superiority on their street.


We have recently been fortunate enough to receive a small amount of funding from Sky Arts for a short film as part of their Arts 50 scheme. They are funding multiple projects across lots of different disciplines around the idea of post-Brexit Britain. Our film will also be shown on the Sky Arts TV channel next year which gives us a great platform to reach a wide audience and spread our message.


However in order to receive our funding from Sky Arts we need to secure the rest of the budget, hence our Kickstarter page. I have put a link to the page below, any help supporting the project or sharing it with others would be much appreciated. We are also offering as one of the rewards the opportunity for us to make a promotional film for you or your business. It's what we do as our day job and are offering it at a highly reduced rate.

Thanks in advance!

During my time in the Army there was a saying that I think really applies to you...


?The service isn?t why it used to be...and it never was!?


You really do yearn for halcyon days that didn?t exist. Sad.

    • Portable ramps are available for businesses to use in this sort of situation, aren't they? I don't know whether one would be suitable for use here, or whether they have the space to store one. Lots of people have  permanent or temporary disabilities which mean they have to use crutches or a wheelchair.
    • I can’t remember where I read that figure but this article in the Grauniad from 2023 discusses Ocado results from 2022. The average shopping cart fell to £118 from £129 the previous year. But Ocado lost £500m that year on approximately 20 million orders (circa 400k orders per week). So, averaging out to £25 lost per order. Ocado pauses building new warehouses as annual losses balloon to £500m | Ocado | The Guardian  Obviously, the £500m loss includes various factors. But Ocado has existed for 25 years and only made a small profit in a couple of those years. The rest have been huge losses. Yet it continues to raise funds and speculation sends the share price up and down. In that respect,  it’s like the UK version of Tesla. Meanwhile, the main growth in the supermarket sector has been for Aldi and Lidl, who do not deliver.
