We're thrilled to announce we’ve been awarded a fantastic £25k grant from @AsdaFoundation to repair the roof of the PRSC building!
This support will make this community & arts space watertight, & paves the way for future improvements like solar panels ☀️

Last ditch attempt to save Turbo Island ahead of sale bristolpost.co.uk/news/brist…
We are calling for Wildstone to take Turbo Island out of next week’s auction, to give us time to raise funds from the community.
Turbo Island is vital part of Stokes Croft, and should be owned by the community.
