    Comments Off on Christmas Cheer and Challenges

    For the first time in several years, the world of children’s media have things to celebrate this Christmas.

    – The Animation and Games tax relief which will help our production sector compete with the rest of the world and ensure more home grown content for our children.

    – Ofcom and the ASA’s swift implementation of the Bailey review’s recommendations,  which will help put the brakes on the sexualisation and commercialisation of our children

    www.parentport.org.uk, which offers parents one-stop access to all the UK’s media regulators.
    However, there are still many challenges in 2013, especially for Children’s theatre, fine arts, music and dance which have been endangered by changes in Education and cuts to public arts funding.

    So whether you and your family settle down to watch the BBC’s Christmas Doctor Who, or C4’s The Snowman and The Snowdog, or watch a performance of The Nutcracker, or your local pantomime, please remember that Children’s Arts and Media are not just for Christmas….

    With all good wishes for a peaceful and prosperous New Year,
    Me.
