Film Access Scotland represents the Film Access sector. The organisations that make up our membership provide opportunities across Scotland, especially to those experiencing disadvantage or exclusion, to participate in and engage with film. While Film Access work most often takes the form of practical sessions in which participants learn filmmaking skills, Film Access projects aim to deliver outcomes beyond the act of filmmaking itself, with far-reaching impact. Film Access work involves making, watching and learning about film as an instrument of societal, personal, and community change. The process of Film Access work itself is as powerful as the end result.

Objectives: The organisation's purposes are: The advancement of the arts and culture and the promotion of equality and diversity through the medium of Film, and in furtherance of this by: 1. Promoting Film Access work and opportunities across Scotland, especially to individuals, groups and communities who are marginalised or disadvantaged. 2. Celebrating the benefits of, stimulating public interest in and fostering and encouraging the appreciation of the Film Access sector and its members by supporting initiatives, programmes, events, festivals and competitions. 3. Supporting Film Access activities which offer the opportunity to connect, exchange skills and share knowledge, information, data and resources in order to establish and maintain a national framework of best practice in the sector. 4. Advocating for the life-long benefits to the public of Film Access activities through the work of the Film Access sector. 5. Delivering an outstanding national programme of Film Access activities that rank alongside the best internationally. and 6. Working in partnership with other sectors and bodies to achieve the purposes.
