Many freelance professionals in the UK TV industry work in isolation, unaware of industry standard rates and practices, and alone when it comes to negotiating fairer contracts and rates or responding to abuses of their rights. Now, a number of TV professionals in the UK are working together to form an online community, using internet technology to increase the bargaining power of individuals and removing some of the isolation in which they work. This email list is designed to provide interested freelancers with information on the progress of this initiative. There's more information at www.tvfreelancers.org.uk.
