Screen Yorkshire is the regional screen agency responsible for inspiring, promoting and supporting a successful and sustainable film, television, games and interactive media sector in Yorkshire and Humber. Our aim is to grow the screen media industries in Yorkshire and Humber by helping businesses to compete in a fast-changing global marketplace.

Screen Yorkshire offers a variety of funding and support initiatives to screen media companies based in the region, supported by its two key partners, Yorkshire Forward and the UK Film Council. Alongside support for regional companies, Screen Yorkshire works nationally and internationally to attract inward investment and simulate the economic growth of the industry in the region.

Screen Yorkshire runs a number of region wide, industry focused networks to support individuals and companies. The networks provide access to buyers and key decision makers and support connections and collaborations between businesses. We also work with national trade bodies and other agencies to represent the needs of the industry. Each network is managed and supported by an industry specialist within Screen Yorkshire or we work with individuals and agencies with a specialist focus.

Since the launch of its £10.2m Digital Media Content Programme in 2006, Screen Yorkshire has attracted over £70 million inward investment to the region’s economy, created 824 jobs, supported 805 businesses and invested in the skills of 1457 individuals.
