The Saltways is an ethical video production company working exclusively with the third sector. We help charities to create authentic, compelling video content through a trauma-informed, co-creative approach built on dignity and trust.
We know that the most effective way to engage and inspire your supporters is through authenticity, transparency and genuine human connection. That means working openly and collaboratively with you and the people at the heart of your work, across everything we do, from bespoke film production and training to research, community building and sector events.

Community Studio is The Saltways’ annual membership for charity and nonprofit communicators who want to create confident, ethical video content using phones. Members access on-demand training, monthly live creative sessions, a private community of peers, ready-to-use templates, and a free strategy call with our team.
The Saltways runs free monthly online workshops for anyone working in the charity and nonprofit sector, covering topics including smartphone filmmaking, ethical storytelling, legacy and in-memory programmes, major donor relationships, and content strategy. Each session is led by practitioners who understand the unique pressures of charity communications, often with guest speakers from organisations across the sector.
The Saltways designs and delivers bespoke training for charity and nonprofit teams who want to build their video content skills in a way that fits their organisation, their audience, and their capacity. Sessions can be delivered in person or online.
