Bus users decorate the bus for couple’s special dayBus users decorate the bus for couple’s special dayBus users decorate the bus for couple’s special dayBus users decorate the bus for couple’s special dayBus users decorate the bus for couple’s special day

When the CATT bus picked up Ivor

and Joyce Evans at the end of June

for their regular shopping trip to

ASDA Whitchurch they were

delighted to see that the bus was

decorated with balloons and

banners saying ‘happy diamond

wedding anniversary’.

Joyce and Ivor were touched by

everyone’s efforts and say that for

them, catching the CATT bus is a

sociable, friendly occasion.

Benefits of catching the CATT bus

The CATT bus helps people like Joyce

and Ivor who can’t access public

transport by picking them up by their

door, where possible.

But this is more than just getting from

A to B to get the shopping in, no matter

how essential these activities are.

These trips keep social networks alive,

helping to combat loneliness.

Lessons learned over sixty years

Have Joyce and Ivor got any advice

for couples on how to make it to their

Diamond Wedding Anniversary?

“I’d say give and take, not take it all

from one side. And take the good with

the bad,” says Joyce.

And seeing this lovely couple in their

home, I’d say there has been plenty of

good times for them to enjoy.

Helping people get around

CATT community bus runs trips for all

ages to places of activity such as shops

and the South Bristol NHS Community

Hospital for people who find it difficult

to access public transport.

Whoops! The last wham! featured a

cover picture of Mayor George

Ferguson by the CATT bus. We name

checked everyone except the fantastic

volunteer driver Colin Holbrow who

drove George that day. Sorry Colin.

Come and have a look at the

Room 13 Gromit titled ‘Pass the

Gromit, Cheese!’ in Hartcliffe

Library.

Room 13 Hareclive is an artists’

studio run by young people for young

people based at Hareclive Academy.

Gromit was given to Room 13 by The

John James Bristol Foundation.

The idea came from 11 year old

researcher Jack who wanted people

to try and guess how many pieces of

cheese they can spot - the colourful

triangles represent cheeses.

Gromit Unleashed Trail

The trail of 80 large Gromits are

around Bristol 1 July-8 September.

Information and maps online at

www.gromitunleashed.org.uk/

Paper copies are available at venues

including At-Bristol, M Shed,

Windmill Hill City Farm and Bristol

Tourist Information Centre.

Smaller gromits locally

Schools and local groups are hosting

smaller Gromits including those at

Hartcliffe Library, Dundry School and

the Zion Centre - see page 11.

All 80 large sculptures will be

auctioned in October to raise funds

for The Grand Appeal, Bristol

Children’s Hospital Charity.

Hartcliffe Farm has become a base

for City of Bristol College students

studying land-based and animal

care courses thanks to a partner-

ship between the two organisations.

Lorraine Horgan from Hartcliffe Farm

said: “City of Bristol College are now

a major partner for education work

with the Farm.”

Following the process from lambing

to going to market

Lorraine Horgan said: “They can walk

up the road from South Bristol Skills

Academy at Hengrove and the animals

are all here in their natural environment

and they can see the whole cycle – what

they eat, lambing, our cattle going to

market.”

Nigel Emery from Shortwood Road has an allotment at Hartcliffe Com-

munity Park Farm Allotments.

He said: “My kids and grandkids love it. It’s very tranquil here, got a good

community spirit, family orientated, we had a barbecue when the weather was

good, the kids don’t want to go home.

“We’re putting in raised beds for three disabled people & seven for the college.

We’ve got plans – the marshland will become a nature pond with pontoon fea-

turing magnifying glasses. We’ll also have a small park area, the more enjoyable

it is for the children the better it is for the parents.

“We’re inviting people who are interested in getting an allotment to get in touch.”

Allotments cost £50 per year for 15 x 50ft plot and £35 for 15 x 35 ft plot.

Access via Court Farm Road entrance. Tel: (0117) 978 2014

Range of qualifications available

The Level 2, 3 & 4 students use the

Farm from Monday to Wednesday

and work on various projects, includ-

ing rebuilding the paddocks.

The partnership hopes to offer an en-

riched learning experience to students

who are completing the land-based

qualifications, whilst improving links

within the community developing a

community project.

Students to assist with vet checks

Daniel Slade Curriculum Leader for

land-based industries at City of Bris-

tol College says: “The project is going

from strength to strength and is really

making a difference to the learning ex-

perience of the learners that access it.

Students can observe and assist with

basic veterinary checks under super-

vision of farm staff, such as checking

the sheep’s feet, or they can develop

enclosures for the homing of new ani-

mals. This can all be carried out whilst

working towards a qualification, as-

sisting the community and building

work experience.”

Year Six Fair Furlong Primary

School pupils created a colourful

mural to brighten a Withywood

pathway in July.

The work was possible thanks to

Wellbeing Funding from the Dundry

View Neighbourhood Partnership.

Improving lane for all

Residents said they wanted something

done to improve the pathway leading

from Vowell Close to Lynde Close.

Thanks to a joint effort between Fair

Furlong pupils and staff, artist Johnny

De Mearns and staff from Dundry View

NP and Safer Bristol this once unloved

pathway is now far more inviting.

‘Urban flower jungle’ scene

Kyle Beard, 11, has been going to Fair

Furlong since nursery and is looking

forward to using the sports facilities and

fast computers when he goes to

Merchants Academy in September.

It’s going to improve, more people are

going to want to come through. I hope

others will look after the wall.”

“Be the change you want to see”

Johnny de Mearns, the artist working on

the project with the pupils, said:

“I thought the mural was a great

opportunity for young people to learn

how their participatory creativity can have

such a positive and beautiful impact on

their local environment, I am really proud

of all they have learned and done in such

a short time.

“I hope people who see the mural enjoy

it and respect what they have done to

help be the change they want to see.”

CULTURE

Are your priorities for the area:

• Better parks and green

spaces?

• Young People’s services?

• Cleaner, smarter streets?

• Increased sense of safety?

• Improving how neighbours

get on together?

• Employment opportunities?

Come and tell us your priorities

at the Improving Dundry View

Priority Setting Event Saturday 7

September 9.45am-1.45pm

Headley Park Church, St Peters

Rise, Headley Park.

That’s where we’ll ask people what the

next set of improvements are that you

want the Neighbourhood Partnership

to work on over the next few years.

Parks Improvements

The Partnership has been working

through a list of Parks’ improvements

over the last couple of years.

For example, St Augustine’s Park is

getting a new playground now as a

result; the play pod in Withywood Park

was funded from the same ‘priorities’

list. Other new equipment is in the

pipeline for Willmott Park and Headley

Lane Park. We want to hear about new

priorities for parks from you.

Clean and Green money

Each ward in Dundry View has a small

fund to make improvements to smarten

up the streetscene. Come and tell us

where you think it should be spent.

Top ten issues for improvements

The police and council are working

closer together on the top ten issues

which local people want improved - it’s

called Neighbourhood Working.

We want you to pick your top ten

issues from our ‘long list’ to give them.

The morning will be a relaxed event with

tea and coffee, followed by a light lunch

to thank everyone attending.

We look forward to seeing you there.

In August the Steering Group is

meeting with the group interested

in developing an indoor Skate

Park at the pool site.

The Neighbourhood Partnership is

looking at two options for the future

of Bishopsworth Pool:

1. The indoor skate park and

2. The village hub idea.

‘Village hub’ idea

The Steering Group will then look to

develop the option around the ‘village

hub’ idea.

Then there will be a second round of

consultation with the wider

community to get a sense of which

option is wanted locally.

The Steering Group will then send a

final report to the Neighbourhood

Partnership in December 2013 for a

final discussion and decision about the

future of the site.

If you want to be kept informed

please let Heather Williams know –

send her your email or contact

address.

CULTURE

South Bristol Skills Academy has

been open for three years and this

is the first time I have eaten in their

restaurant.

By not going there sooner I think

I’ve been missing out!

The Academy Brasserie is staffed by

students in their first, second or third

year of study in Catering and Hospitality

and has a very relaxed but refined

atmosphere.

At lunchtime it was busy with tables of

end of term parties, staff from the

college and local regulars.

Food sourced from onsite garden

I was later told by Frederic Maindron

the restaurant manager that the

strawberries are just one item of

produce sourced from the horticulture

students’ vegetable garden on site.

It would be hard to get more locally

sourced ingredients than that!

I definitely would recommend a visit,

and if the dinner experience isn’t enough

of a treat the college also offer a spa

and dinner experience.

The varied menu, updated weekly by

the students, is a very reasonably priced

combination of two or three courses.

I chose the soup of the day to start,

which was vegetable. While waiting we

were offered homemade bread that is

made fresh daily by the students.

The soup was really tasty, as was my

main of cod nicoise salad.

The presentation of all the dishes,

including the Eton Mess pudding, was

very pretty and of a high standard.

The Academy Brasserie is open

Monday to Friday from 12pm to

1.30pm for lunch term-time only.

Lunch costs £4.50 for a main course,

£6.50 for two, £7.95 for three courses.

Children and young people in

Bristol will now have the chance to

improve their health, confidence

and self-esteem after the CSV Play

Rangers project received £250,000

boost from the Big Lottery Fund for

the next three years.

CSV Play Rangers has been delivering

outdoor play and learning across

Bristol for six years and the new funding

will allow them to continue the activity

sessions and improve access to

outdoor play in areas including

Hartcliffe and Withywood.

Four play sessions a week

The grant will fund four play sessions a

week, as well as bringing together local

children, young and adult volunteers to

form a project steering group.

Working outdoors in the community

Nicky Jones, CSV Play Manager in

Bristol said: “CSV is delighted to have

received this funding from the Big

Lottery to continue working outdoors

in the heart of the community with the

children that really need interesting and

challenging play opportunities.

“CSV Play Rangers will offer quality

activities and support to the children

and will engage the community to

ensure they are involved in the direction

of the project.”

Lucy de Groot, CSV Chief Executive,

said: “This vital grant from the Big

Lottery Fund will go a long way to help

young people be active in their

community, combat social exclusion

and tackle health problems.

“This provides opportunities for them

to experience new adventures that will

challenge them.”

CSV are working in partnership with

Learning Partnerships West, the Bristol

Youth Links provider of services for

children and young people to ensure

that play is provided across South

Bristol in as many green spaces as

possible.

CSV

CSV (Community Service Volunteers)

is a charitable organisation which

creates opportunities for people to take

an active part in the life of their

communities through volunteering,

learning and community action. Last

year 150,000 people gave their time

as volunteers through CSV.

Calling all Whitchurch Park

homeowners! Can you help? I am

a PhD student at the University of

the West of England in need of

homeowners in Whitchurch Park to

give me just two hours of their time.

You could make a huge difference to

my study.

Home energy efficiency savings

The study looks at motivations for home

energy efficiency improvements, from

low energy light bulbs and loft insulation

to low-energy house refurbishment.

Interested in talking to all

Whitchurch Park residents

But you don’t need to have installed a

mass of measures, in fact, even if you

haven’t installed energy efficiency

measures, I’d still like to hear from you.

The study relies on the kindness and

cooperation of homeowners in

volunteering their time to talk to me.

I need you to talk!

Confidential participation

Participation is confidential and the

Say cheese! Children from Four Acres Nursery.

Nine pupils from Bedminster Down

school who rescued a girl from a

swollen river and helped over a

hundred other young people to

cross safely received special

awards to mark their achievement

from Avon Fire & Rescue Service.

The awards were presented by Chief

Fire Officer, Kevin Pearson at St

Georges Hall as part of Bedminster

Down School’s awards ceremony.

The fifteen year olds from Bedminster

Down School were competing in the

Ten Tors Dartmoor Challenge in May.

On the first day of the trek, and having

made good time, the team led by Matt

Hunt decided to find a safer place to

cross a dangerously swollen river.

Spent three hours helping others

While waiting to cross waist-high water

a girl in the group in front lost her footing

and was carried off downstream.

Youngster Max Alford quickly used his

throw-line to pull the girl to safety.

She was picked up by the air

ambulance and later recovered.

The team then used their throw-line to

fashion a guide rope across the river

and helped more than 100 Ten Tors

challengers to safely cross the river.

The three and a half hours spent helping

others gave them little chance of

completing the route themselves.

Bravery & teamwork applauded

On hearing of their exploits the Ten Tors

Director took the unusual step of

awarding the students their medals even

though they did not finish.

“The director told us that the group’s

bravery, teamwork and concern for

others was exactly what the Ten Tors

was all about” said Steve Christie,

School Business Manager.

“We are very proud of the team and

it’s great they are receiving this extra

recognition from the Fire Service.”
