Rare Day ([url]http://www.rareday.co.uk[/url]) is making a landmark series of five documentaries for Channel 4 about growing up in Britain today. Each film will be about a young person (or number of young people) going through a transition in their lives.

We’d really like one of films in the series to explore what it means to form positive and committed relationships. As part of our initial confidential research, we’re hoping to speak to young couples getting married this year about making the positive decision to commit to a lifelong partner. We’re particularly keen to hear from you if you have experienced your own parents’ separation at an earlier stage of your life, to find out whether you feel this has influenced how you see and value your own relationship.

We want this to be a positive and inspiring documentary, featuring thoughtful young people making sense of their family situations and coming to a realisation of who they are and what they want in their own lives.

We’re a BAFTA award winning team used to working responsibly and collaboratively with young people. We will be carrying out our duty of care according to guidelines we've established with C4 and hope that filming itself will be an empowering experience for the people involved, and a chance to tell their stories in their own words.

If you would like more information about the project, please contact assistant producer Ayesha Tariq on ayesha@rareday.co.uk / 020 7729 8699. There’s absolutely no obligation for anyone we speak to as part of our confidential research to be involved in any filming.
