'Millcaster Tales' is more than just a charity soap opera; it provides a new perspective on the key issues we all face working in the third sector.

The debate on the issues arising from each tale is as important as the tale itself.

We hope that the videos of Millcaster Tales will encourage you to contribute to the discussions we're having on the main issues from each tale.
