Heidi Lynch is an award-winning producer, writer, and actor who is most passionate about film/TV when it is paired with advocacy - most importantly for women, the queer community and the disability community. 

 

You can see Heidi's work as showrunner/producer in both seasons of Avocado Toast the series on Amazon Prime/Peacock/Canal+ (OUTtv). Heidi just released a series called Get Hooked that explores the mental health benefits of fishing and nature for underrepresented communities (OUTtv/AMI Network/Freeview). 

 

She was recently recognized at Series Mania in Lille, France, as one of Canada's "Producers to Watch" and was selected for the Toronto International Film Festival Series Accelerator Talent Lab.

 

In the U.K., Heidi is executive producer on the Uncertain Kingdom awarded short film Agnes (post-production). She recently produced three short films for the charity Home-Start, which were nominated for the Campaign Awards 2025, the Smiley Charity Films awards 2025, and the Shiny Awards longlist. The films, Anxiety, Grief, and Hunger premiered on ITV3 and Curzon Cinemas with support from BT.

 

Heidi is very excited to be attending the EFM (European Film Market) for the first time in 2026 with the generous support of the Disability Screen Office. She is also very excited to attend the Real Screen Awards for the first time in 2026 with her project Get Hooked.
