Building on the success of the 2024 and 2025 festivals, the Trauma-Informed Film Festival 2026 will take place on 1 October 2026, at the Hyde Park Picture House, Leeds. Risk and Resilience deliver this alongside a collection of people who work for the VCS Alliance, GIPSIL/Engage Leeds, Change, Grow, Live and BARCA – third sector organisations based in Leeds, the wider West Yorkshire area and nationally based.
The festival uses film and creative storytelling to deepen understanding of trauma-informed practice, amplify lived experience, and strengthen collaboration across statutory, voluntary and community services.
The 2026 festival is focusing on the trauma informed principle of collaboration.

The 2025 Film Festival
In 2025, we proudly launched the second Trauma-Informed Film Festival at the iconic Hyde Park Picture House in Leeds. We dropped the Leeds bit in our title as we wanted to reinforce that this is a festival for all!
Unfortunately, due to rights issues, we are unable to have our full virtual festival this year but below are a few highlights from the event!
Stay tuned for more information for the 2026 film festival!

The 2024 Film Festival
On October 17th, we proudly launched the inaugural Leeds Trauma-Informed Film Festival at the iconic Hyde Park Picture House in Leeds. This groundbreaking event showcased the creativity and compelling stories of services in Leeds—and beyond—that support individuals facing homelessness, mental health challenges, substance use, and other adversities.
The festival celebrated the exceptional work of local services and the inspiring journeys of their service users. Through the powerful medium of film, we explored themes of trauma, resilience, and growth, fostering a deeper understanding of these experiences within our community.
But the festival didn’t stop there! We’re thrilled to announce the launch of the Virtual Festival, where you can watch all the films online. Feel free to share these inspiring stories with anyone who might benefit.
And guess what? We’ll be back in 2025 with more stories to share. Stay tuned for updates!
