As part of Speakeasy’s 20-year anniversary celebrations, our staff in London and Scotland selected two charities to produce promotional films for as charitable donations.

One of these was Shooting Star Chase, a leading children’s hospice charity caring for babies, children and young people with life-limiting conditions, and their families. The charity depends on the generosity of supporters for its funding, so awareness-raising activity like this is invaluable.

We met the families of Liam and Kye, two children with complex needs, and heard about the vital support they receive from Shooting Star. The simple interview-led approach, combining new footage and family photography, gives a personal and moving insight into each family’s story and experiences.

The film closes with a call to action and a reminder of the cause: ‘Whether lives are measured in days, weeks, months or years, we are here to make every moment count to babies, children and young people with life-limiting conditions, and their families.’
