The first part of this session includes our very first Annual General Meeting (AGM). We’ll reflect on the challenges and achievements of the DFC in its first year and present our newly elected board. In the second part, we’ll focus on developing a key priority from last year’s Assembly – developing the documentary community across the UK. Show up, represent your region and help build the foundations of the DFC’s regional chapters
