The service we provide is free to both productions, location owners and crew.  In return for our help and time we would ask productions to complete the attached Regional Expenditure Form. The information given is completely confidential, and helps us to justify the free service we provide to our funders – particularly the UK Film Council.  It is a Form that has been approved by the Production Guild of Great Britain and which most of the regional screen agencies now send out to productions.  Even approximate figures are very useful and give a good indication of the film and economic activity in our region. Thank-you in advance for your co-operation with this.
