❤️ Coming together to celebrate food and culture in Southmead ❤️

Last week people from across Southmead came together to celebrate culture, wellbeing and sustainability through food and activities in their local community hall.

Organised by the Pakistani Welfare Organisation and One Green Kitchen, the event was a chance to bring people together and celebrate different things from their own cultures. It was nice to see so many people from different parts of the community. A huge thanks to all the volunteers who made this possible.

This was just one event from the Bristol Community Festival which is organised by Bristol City Council in partnership with community organisations. This is a citywide initiative which celebrates community action and social initiatives shining a light on Bristol’s thriving voluntary, community and social enterprise sector.

Is your child in Year 13, or aged under 25 and starting university or residential further education for the first time this autumn? They may be eligible for the free one-off MenB vaccination programme.

MenB can cause serious illnesses including meningitis and sepsis. Two doses are needed for protection, with the first being offered from July and the second from August.

Year 13 students will be contacted by the NHS and sent a link to book a pharmacy appointment. Eligible university and residential further education students can get vaccinated at participating pharmacies on a walk-in basis.

It’s Loneliness Awareness Week (15–21 June), a global campaign that aims to reduce the stigma around loneliness and help build more connected communities.

Tonight (Monday 15 June), City Hall will be lit up in orange, alongside other public buildings across the country, to help give loneliness a voice.

The week is a reminder that tackling isolation isn’t just about services, it’s also about creating places where people feel they belong. This includes our Welcoming Spaces, community centres and libraries. so we’ll be sharing events happening across Bristol throughout the week.

Small moments of connection matter.

🚧 Reminder: Overnight road closures – Broadmead

The Haymarket (one-way) and access onto The Horsefair will be closed overnight from Sun 14 to Thu 18 June, between 9pm and 6am.

🚍 Diversions and changes to bus routes will be in place.

We need to close the roads overnight so we can safely remove the sails structure and vacant food kiosks, in preparation for a reconfigured junction, new crossings, cycle routes and planting.

Congratulations to all award winners at the On Site Bristol Apprentice of the Year Awards!

A special mention goes to Ellie Bush, who was named On Site Bristol’s Apprentice of the Year 2026 at the County Ground!

The award was presented by the Lord Mayor of Bristol, Councillor Yassin Mohamud, and it is a recognition of Ellie's exceptional commitment, professionalism and technical ability throughout her apprenticeship.

As an apprentice with Paul Sellick Bricklaying, she has consistently produced work of a high standard. Her work is to such a high level, that she has been named the Guild of Bricklayers South West 2026 Senior Regional Champion and competed at the Guild of Bricklayers National Final in Leeds earlier this week.

Well done, Ellie!
