FILM producers and media organisations are to be offered a handy guide to the attractions to Waltham Abbey with the launch of a DVD.

A media pack has been produced by the Waltham Abbey town centre partnership, detailing the rich history of the town and the practicalities of staging a film shoot.

Media organisations, tourist chiefs, volunteers and business leaders will gather for the official launch at a reception in the Marriot Hotel in Old Shire Lane at 10am on January 17.
