If you've passed through Stokes Croft recently you may have caught sight of this amazing mural painted by @GNDRising at @PRStokesCroft.
GNDR fights for climate justice and campaigned tirelessly with me this summer. As you can see, I had fun helping out with painting last week! 🖌️

Richard Jones recalls the battle to save Ursa the Bear. While standing on the toilet block in Bristol’s Bearpit, Ursa welcomed people to our city. She was removed when the council 'took back control', but her spirit lives on.

Since October 7, only 1 international journalist has been able to enter Gaza to independently cover the war. 123 Palestinian journalists, in addition to three Lebanese and two Israeli, have been killed. 43 journalists remain detained by Israel.

Turbo Island is set to be sold at auction on 16 October.
The owners have rejected our request to delay the auction and give us time to plan and raise funds for a community purchase.
So now we urgently need your help to raise funds to purchase it!

Turbo Island was once covered in grass & miniature Easter Island heads.
Reminders of this & other community use of the space are needed to prove the plot of land at Stokes Croft deserves Village Green status

Turbo Island love stories from @TheBristolCable

We loose what we love if we don't fight for it.
#TurboIsland
There was an initial public meeting to organisa a community bid to buy Turbo Island here last night.
We've written up a report form it if you're interested on our blog: prsc.org.uk/save-turbo-islan…
This will need a genuine community effort, but we're pretty optimistic it will work!
PRSC retweeted
Have the public enjoyed Turbo Island unchallenged by the landowner for 20 years or more, and is their evidence of this?
Sound like it could be declared a public right of way, and thus impossible for any owner current or future, to cut off access to.
