Engaging, inclusive staff and volunteer training videos for charities and non-profits

 Need to train staff, upskill volunteers, or roll out safeguarding guidance across your organisation? High-quality charity training videos are one of the most effective ways to deliver consistent, accessible training—without needing everyone in the same room.

At Neck of the Woods Films, we specialise in training video production for charities and third sector organisations. Whether you’re introducing new safeguarding procedures, improving internal communication, or sharing lived experience to enhance awareness, we create story-led learning videos that reflect your values and engage your team.

Are you looking for a training video for your organisation?

More and more charity training professionals and internal communications teams are turning to video as a powerful tool for learning and development. Here’s why:

Message consistency – Deliver the same clear, confident training experience across teams and regions.

Remote-friendly – Reach hybrid and dispersed teams with training content that’s always available, anywhere.

Time-saving – Cut down on repetitive live sessions and streamline onboarding and CPD.

Increased engagement – Real people, real stories—because no one wants to sit through another slide deck.

Replayable learning – Staff and volunteers can pause, rewind or rewatch videos as needed, maximising understanding and retention.

Scalable – Update or expand your video library as your charity evolves.

Let’s work together

Why work with Neck of the Woods Films?

We’re here to help you train, inspire and equip your team—whether you need one video or a full series of professional training videos. We understand that charities aren’t just looking for a training video—they’re looking for a partner who understands the sector, respects the nuance of the work, and delivers meaningful results. Here’s why non-profits and charities trust us to deliver professional charity training video content:

  • Charity sector expertise

    We work exclusively with charities, non-profits, and purpose-led organisations. Our team understands the language, challenges, and sensitivities that come with producing training videos for the third sector. Whether you’re a mental health charity, a youth organisation, or a membership body, we speak your language and understand your audience.

  • Story-first training video production

    We believe even training content should have heart. Our story-driven approach helps your audience connect emotionally and cognitively with the learning. From safeguarding video content to volunteer onboarding films, we make training memorable, not mundane.

  • Tailored learning content for non-profits

    No one-size-fits-all templates here. Every training video is custom-made for your charity’s learning objectives, tone of voice, and values. Whether you need an animated GDPR explainer or a series of scenario-based films for frontline staff, we design the right approach for your message.

  • Collaborative production process

    We work closely with your L&D or internal comms team from day one. You bring the expertise on your service and audience; we shape it into clear, inclusive and visually engaging training videos that work across platforms and audiences.

  • Plain English, accessible visuals

    We’re experts at distilling complex or sensitive information into clear, accessible video training content. Our videos support diverse learners, work across teams, and help ensure that key messages land and stick.

We’re proud of our work, as are our charity clients.

  • We worked with Neck of the Woods to create a new, signature video for our charity and also social cuts from this. They were an absolute pleasure to work with from the very start and their professionalism and passion ensured that the end results were brilliant.

    Future First

  • We had the absolute pleasure of working with NOTW Films back in September and the experience will stay with us for a lifetime. From the very beginning of our project, they were nothing short of incredible and really took our very basic idea and turned it into something special. After a few positive planning meetings, they came to film and blew us away. It's safe to say every single member of our team who met them fell in love and we're all now individually plotting how we can work with them constantly going forward. The film they created surpassed all of our expectations and left us speechless.

    The Renewal Programme

  • "Our experience of working with NOTW is very positive, from the start they understood what we wanted to get out of the project and were empathetic to our cause. They guided us through the process with ease and we loved having them with us. They were honest in their approach and directed us with their knowledge on what would work best for the films we wanted to produce. The team are amazing, professional, compassionate and the films they produced for us really showcase who we are and we are really proud of them."

    York Road Project

  • Working with Neck of the Woods Films is a delight. From the proposal and pre-production stage, all the way through to adding the final touches to the films, they are incredibly patient and ardent.
    They passionately take on all elements of the project, engrossing themselves in the films and the work informing them. Neck of the Woods bring the perfect balance of experience, vision and trust of the client to deliver on projects that exceed our expectations.

    Centre for Ageing Better

  • "We work with at risk targeted groups and vulnerable communities and every time we book the services of Neck of the Woods we have absolute trust and confidence in their ability to provide honest, professional and high quality production. They are a dream to work with, flexible to our needs, communication is always clear and they actively listen to our visions. Their ability to work sensitively and stealthily where appropriate is a skill we massively respect."
