WOFFF needs your help if it is to continue to grow and thrive. WOFFF is a community made up of volunteers, filmmakers, audiences, guest speakers, workshop facilitators, judges, supporters and sponsors. Your sponsorship can make a huge practical difference – from hosting a workshop, to offering affordable ticket prices or offering filmmaker prizes.
We’d love you to help us as we strive to make this year’s WOFFF the best one yet.
How you can help
You can make a contribution to Women Over 50 Film Festival and help WOFFF flourish as we work towards a filmmaking world where women over 50 thrive.

Patron
Our patron Greta Scacchi (Versailles and War & Peace) supports WOFFF particularly because it is tackling the discrimination older women face in the media. She says, “I am delighted that Women Over 50 Film Festival is here to upset the Hollywood apple cart that accepts actresses playing ten years older while actors can play ten years younger. This festival is unique in celebrating rather than hiding or ignoring older women in film. WOFFF rejoices in our older stories, older faces and older hearts and it is my pleasure to be associated with the Festival.”
We’d like to say a huge thanks to all the fine folks whose generosity makes it possible to bring you Women Over 50 Film Festival.
