Congrats, congrats, congrats, to Heavy Load who have been nominated for a diversity award.

Heavy Load is a punk bank made up of musicians with and without learning disabilities. Trust Greenbelt granted funding to raise the profile of this group through the distribution of their 'Wild Things' CD. Heavy Load' has been short listed for a CDN/BroadcastNow! Diversity Award – for programmes that encourage diversity in mainstream media. The Award is judged by an online public vote over the next 9 days – so spare a minute to vote for their film over here.

If you'd like to see the film it's available now at a bargain price from Amazon or a slightly higher price on the Heavy Load website- but with the added bonus of adding your support to their brilliant work.
