Round up of news from Jos and Andrew

THIS WEEK’S ROUND - UP OF LOCAL NEWS

OUR LATEST COMMUNITY NEWSLETTER:

We believe in keeping local residents informed all year round, not just at election time! We are the only team who regularly deliver newsletters throughout the year and our latest one is hitting the doorsteps right now. We want to thank all the local residents who volunteer to deliver the newsletter to every household across the ward. If you would like to help out for an hour or so every few months to deliver the local news, please get in touch.

CHRISTMAS CHURCH SERVICES:

All our local churches have a busy month of services leading up to Christmas. See the picture for details of services at St Cuthbert’s and St Anne’s. ASH TREE REMOVAL ON BRISLINGTON HILL:

Following a recent asset inspection, unfortunately there is an Ash situated adjacent to Brislington Hill on the raised bank which will have to be removed in the coming weeks due to extensive buttress decay, ash dieback and honey fungus infection. The main stem of the tree is also decayed. Due to the tree’s location overhanging Brislington Hill, there will be a requirement for traffic management and there will be a degree of disruption, as a mobile platform will be required located on the road to dismantle the tree.

We are excited to let you know we are getting the Youth Club on Wheels back out on the road. It will be in Brislington starting January 2023. The mobile youth club will be going out on Monday 19 December to canvas the area and distribute leaflets to local businesses. From January, it will be out on Mondays, 3:30-5:30, delivering social action work and then staying on to deliver Open Access Sessions, 6:30 – 8:30. All will be from the Lynwood Park Area.

Hundreds of Brislington West residents have signed up to receive our monthly newsletter via email. You can register using this link: http://www.bristollibdems.org/efocus.
