Ex-policeman's powerful film goes behind the scenes on the frontline

An ex-policeman has created a powerful short film which shows the reality frontline key workers are facing every day in the UK.

The film created by Will Dawson gives a glimpse into the lives of doctors, nurses, police officers firefighters and others as they help battle the coronavirus pandemic.

Since leaving the force Will has become creative director for video production company, Raw Pictures.

He has created a powerful and emotive short film which captures the behind the scenes events of key workers on the front line.

Will said: "I was really shocked to hear that my former colleagues in the police force were being spat at by members of the general public, having had no access to PPE, meaning they had no gloves, masks or goggles to protect themselves. It really affected me on a personal level."

Will is keen to raise awareness among the general public of what our NHS and service workers are doing to keep our lives safe, creating a very real and deep response through the video he has made to make people stop and think more about their actions.
