A public documentary storytelling project, making mothers visible.

Firestarter Mum stops everyday mothers on UK high streets and asks one question: what would you say to a mum who feels she's lost herself? The answers become films, a living archive and a printed record.

Voices from the archive

Verbatim, exactly as spoken.

"I don't think you ever truly find your old self. I think you find a new self."
Mum, Weston-super-Mare
"You'll find yourself again. For sure. You'll find yourself again. It looks like not, but you will at some point."
Mum, Bristol
"I think that you lose a part of yourself, but you gain a new self, and you've got to try and integrate them a little bit."
Mum, Bath
"Even if you're ill, you have to get up and try your best to be the best mother you can for your little one, even though you're feeling that you can't get up and can't do anything, sometimes you feel depressed, ill, not yourself. But you still have to get up and keep going with the day."
Mum, Cardiff

Three ways to stand behind the question.

The Sponsored Street Campaign

A shared question, taken to the street

A dedicated street documentary series filmed in a major UK city around a thematic question developed together. Your brand is credited as the partner who made the campaign possible, across the films and channels. The mothers, the question and the edit stay independent.

The Series Presenting Partner

Long-term patronage of the archive

Ongoing underwriting of the core street archive. Firestarter Mum street documentary series is supported by your brand, with credit on the films, the website archive and in Field Notes.

Field Notes & Archive Features

Sponsor the printed record

Sponsor an edition of Field Notes or underwrite a community print monograph, placing your brand inside the quiet, long-life publication readers keep.

Rates on request. Firestarter Mum does not take on scripted product placement or uncredited white-label work: every partnership is credited, and the mothers we witness always come first. Street voices take part with consent and are identified only by city.
