UK Film & TV’s Mental Health Crisis Deepens, With 1,300 Workers Experiencing Suicidal Thoughts
The UK's Film and TV Charity has released headline findings from its Looking Glass Survey and the results show a deepening mental health crisis.
The industry has also confronted the tragedy of John Balson, the TV producer who died by suicide earlier this year after working on Channel 4’s true-crime series In the Footsteps of Killers. Marcus Ryder, CEO of the Film and TV Charity, said: “Across previous iterations of the Looking Glass Survey, we have consistently identified how prevalent poor mental health is right across the industry. “The early headlines from our 2024 survey are remarkably consistent – somewhat positive given the various crises that have hit the sector in recent years, but far more a cause of great concern that things are not improving quickly enough.”
