SAUL WEBBE

We are very sad to let you know that Saul Webbe one of our very dear Different Voices collaborators, passed away in his sleep on the 19th of June 2025.

Saul was one of the key people in our second Different Voices Films voices project in 2017.

Creator of the extraordinary and beautifully rendered set of characters called the Harmony Cubs, Saul made a fantastic little film explaining his process which you can see here.

Saul also linked us to our wonderful collaborators at the Cardiff Animation Festival This relationship has proved really dynamic for us and we can't thank Saul and his family enough for making this connection possible. It has greatly influenced our work.

Our hearts go out to his mum, Humie and the rest of his family.

Much love from biggerhouse film

With raw authenticity, it paints a portrait of navigating our inner worlds and relationships. A powerful celebration of growth, vulnerability, and the beauty in simple moments, this film reminds us that togetherness is the greatest energy we can share.

Animation by Suzanne Deakin and composition by Mathew Olden.

Exciting news that our film 'We need to talk about…death' has been nominated for a national award in the Partnership Working Across Health and Social Care Award category for the 2025 Palliative Care Awards!

This award is all about collaboration and we could not have made the film without the fantastic contribution from the people from My Day - Day Services for Adults with Learning Disabilities.

The film was funded by NHS Somerset and was made to remove the taboo around talking about death and dying with people with learning differences.

This Mental Health Awareness Week, remember: nature doesn’t ask anything of you. It just is.

A quiet walk. A breath of fresh air. A river flowing by.

As Joyce said, “I’m part of the world.”

In nature, we’re allowed to just be—no pressure, no performance, just peace.

This week, Get outside. Close your eyes. Breathe.
