Directed and written by local resident and Youth Film Club lead Kulbir Maras. 'Between Us' is our first ever feature film about a series of three short stories about young love and modern connection set in London: an unresolved past, a complicated confession and a chance will change the future of these young lives.

Our Big Local Youth Film Club is a community filmmaking project designed for young people living and studying in and around our Big Local area. The project is in collaboration with filmmakers Arfhan Razak and Kulbir Maras and supported by C-Change West London.
During the sessions young people learn the art of filmmaking and community work. In the last 7 years our young people have been involved with making documentaries, short films, music videos and community related content. The sessions are an opportunity for young people to learn leadership, communication and creative skills in a safe, friendly and fun environment. The youth film club is often the first step for our young people to get involved with our community volunteering programme. Sessions are FREE and run weekly every Sunday at Cranford Community College from 11 to 3pm. To sign up please click here. On Saturday 17th December 2022, we held our Big Local Christmas Community Wonderland Event at the Brabazon Community Centre and on Johnson Road in partnership with Creative Spaces London and Dan's Diner.
We had over 100 local people attend, coming together to celebrate Christmas and our strong community spirit. Big thanks to all our amazing volunteers, including Inder Ramdeva as Olaf and Kapil Lund as Mickey Mouse and Dan's Dinner for helping us put together this event. In total we raised over £200 for Great Ormand Street Hospital. In partnership with the Woodland Trust and Cranford Community College, our team of our young Big Local volunteers planted over 50 tress in the local community to help create a new woodlands pathway.

By Devinder Ramdeva Hi I’m Devinder and I have been a volunteer with Heston West Big Local since October 2021. I was given the opportunity to be part of the Youth Film Club, being involved has given me the chance to grow and to become confident behind and in front of the camera. I feel the Film Club is a fun space to be in where creative minds can come together to create something unique. At the Film Club, we work as a team to create and develop ideas for short films and documentaries focused on specific issues, which we then upload to YouTube. The most recent project we worked on was the Batman film which was exciting to be involved with.
We need your support this Saturday from 10.30 to 1pm at the Go Hounslow Event held at Cranford Community College. We have applied for TWO community projects: Family Boxing and Bingo Over 60s.

If you can attend, please do, more the merrier too. We look forward to seeing you all on Saturday On Sunday 5th June 2022 we held our Big Local and Summer of Culture Queen Platinum Jubilee Event at the Brabazon Community Centre. In partnership with Creative Spaces London (CSL) and Bantu Arts, we had over 130 residents join in on the celebrations. Bantu Arts were amazing delivering drumming masterclasses and live performances.
CSL inspired the community to create Jubilee-themed art and accessories. Our Big Local Youth Film Club participants captured the event, interviewing attendees including the London Borough of Hounslow’s newly elected leader and Heston West ward councillor Shantanu Rajawat. Overall, the event was a big success, drawing in residents from across the local area. A big thanks to all our incredible Heston West Big Local volunteers for organising and supporting the event and our community partners and friends. Thanks also to the London Borough of Hounslow for their amazing support in funding the event through their Summer of Culture and Thriving Communities grants. Thank you to everyone who attended, without you, we couldn’t do it! Happy 96th Birthday and Platinum Jubilee to our Queen! |
