First Light Movies (FLM) is the leading nationwide initiative that enables disadvantaged young people aged between five and 19 years to realise their creative potential via film-making. With backing by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS), the Department for Children, Families and Schools (DCFS) and the UK Film Council, FLM administers significant public funds.

Since 2001, FLM through DCMS lottery funding has supported over 12,000 young people to produce more than 900 short films, reflecting the diversity and richness of their lives, whilst DCFS via Mediabox, a new major funding scheme managed by First Light Movies, has since the beginning of 2007, enabled over 4,000 young people across England to create 65 digital media projects.
