Grey Melbourne helps to build better lives
Grey Melbourne has produced a cinema spotto raise awareness of the issue and of Building Better Lives, a charity that works to get young people with disabilities out of nursing homes and into more suitable accommodation.
These are people in their 20s and 30s who have had strokes, acquired brain damage or illnesses such as multiple sclerosis.
Often they are put into old folks homes because there is nowhere else.
It was created on a Mac by young film-maker Josh Dawson entirely free of charge. The music was provided free by Melbourne band Planet Love Sound. And Ron Philips at Mitchells managed to get free cinema placement from some extremely generous media owners.
Should anybody wish to donate they can do so at buildingbetterlives.org.au

Cheap but effective – it’s really great to see collaborations like this for a worthy cause that often gets pushed aside for other charities
Well done Nige, Pete and Sandi… and great work from Josh.
