About future.ly

A non-profit.
A film crew.
Every dollar public.

Futurely Community Interest Company is a UK registered non-profit building a media platform for grassroots stories worth telling. We film one community at a time, design products with the people in the story, and publish every transaction for anyone to see.

01 · The work

Tell the story honestly.

We live where we shoot. We name the people in the film. No pity edits, no charity-guilt voiceovers, no stock footage.

02 · The economics

Sell products, not pity.

Every campaign is funded by tees, prints and films designed with the community. The margin builds the thing.

03 · The transparency

Publish every receipt.

Every dollar in, every dollar out, published live for anyone to read. Audited annually by Bishop Fleming, Bristol.
