Prior’s Court is honoured to submit our entry into this year's Charity Film Awards: 'A very special relationship - Sarah and Rowan.'

This film delves into the extraordinary relationship between Team Manager Sarah, and Rowan, an autistic young person with complex needs who has been at Prior's Court since 2015. Their bond is a testament to the power of human connection and the transformative impact of understanding and empathy.

The Charity Film Awards is currently at the public vote stage in which a longlist of entries is whittled down to a shortlist. From the shortlist, a panel of judges choose the winner across each category. But, there is also a people's choice winner in each category based on the number of public votes cast.

So there is two reasons why we need your votes before the deadline of Wednesday, 29 January, 2025.

Staff members at Prior's Court build incredible relationships with the autistic young people with complex needs we support here and their families. Staff members are not surrogate families. Their bonds with young people are like friendship, but not quite. Their relationships are unique and special. This is the story of Rowan and Sarah's bond:

At Prior’s Court, we believe that every individual, regardless of their challenges, deserves to be seen and understood. Sarah and Rowan's story embodies this belief, showcasing the profound impact that dedicated staff can have on the lives of autistic young people.
