Whether you’re new to the Party or have transferred from another local party we hope you’ll find this pack useful for orientation and gaining an understanding of how our local party works. Please read on to find out how you can meet other members and get involved in helping to win seats and grow the party. We have members and supporters of all ages across all wards of the city. Our Diversity Officer is striving to make us as representative as possible of the people of our wonderful multicultural city of Bristol. USEFUL ONLINE RESOUR CES Website: www.bristollibdems.org Facebook Members’ and Registered Supporters’ Hub: www.facebook.com/groups/BristolLibDems Facebook Public Page: www.facebook.com/BristolLibDems (help raise our profile by liking the public page and sharing posts from there) Twitter: @BristolLibDems Bristol Liberal Democrats – Induction Pack for New Members & Supporters V1.6 1 T H E L O CA L PARTY - PARLIAMENTARY SEATS This covers the four City of Bristol Constituencies Our strongest constituency is Bristol West where Stephen Williams served as MP 2005 – 2015. Our Parliamentary Candidates are James Cox for Bristol West, Nick Coombes for Bristol East and Andrew Brown for Bristol South. We are currently recruiting for the Bristol North West Parliamentary Candidate position. Nick Coombes, James Cox, Andrew Brown O U R MAYORAL CANDIDATE Mary Page, our Mayoral Candidate is an active member of the national Green Liberal Democrats Committee and is committed to campaigning to abolish the Mayoralty (this is our official policy adopted at local conference in September 2018). Mary Page, our Mayoral Candidate OUR COUNCIL GROUP We currently have 7 Councillors. Our Council Group Leader is Cllr Gary Hopkins (Knowle). Our other councillors are Jos Clark (Brislington West), Harriet Clough (Hengrove & Whitchurch Park), Chris Davies (Knowle), Tim Kent (Hengrove & Whitchurch Park), Anthony Negus (Cotham Ward) and Mark Wright (Hotwells & Harbourside). Our former council leader Barbara Janke now sits in the House of Lords as Baroness Janke of Clifton. Our Extended Council Group meets once every few Cllr Gary Hopkins, Council Group Leader weeks and is open to any active members who wish to stand for election in the 2020 Local Elections or to play a key role in helping others get elected. Our strategy is to actively grow the local party by winning more council seats as we can really make a difference in a local government and that will help us gain more votes in the next General Election. Members are encouraged to speak at public Council meetings. Our Council Group achieves frequent Press Coverage in the local Press, often working cross-party with the Greens and Tories to hold the Labour-run Council and Labour Mayor in check and many of our proposed local policies are adopted. Max Langer speaking at a council meeting Bristol Liberal Democrats – Induction Pack for New Members & Supporters V1. 6 2 VOLUNTEERING Most of our volunteering activities require no previous experience and we don’t ask for a regular commitment – you’re welcome to join in whenever you can spare the time. We do, however, rely on many of our members and supporters putting in a big personal effort during election campaigns. We deliver a lot of leaflets as we do not enjoy the same press coverage as the two main parties. Street Stall on College Green Opportunities to participate in all the activities below are listed on our Facebook Members’ and Supporters’ Hub and in regular e-newsletters. Often one or more activities are built into an Action Day which includes a lunch in a pub or café for an opportunity to meet other activists. Canvassing (in person or by phone) Freshers’ Fair Surveying (in person or by phone) Street stalls Delivery of leaflets, Focus Newsletters and letters to members Envelope Stuffing Data Entry Election Campaigns – all of the above plus Telling (sitting on a polling station), hosting a diamond in a visible spot on your property or Envelope stuffing for the Members’ Mailing in your car Campaigning for neighbouring local parties in by-elections Offering house/garden for events Collecting signatures for local party petitions Participating in local rallies or demonstrations If you haven’t tried canvassing before you are welcome to pair up and shadow an experienced canvasser the first time you try it.

If you have any accessibility requirements then get in touch with the organiser of the event and they will do their best to accommodate you. LIB DEM 101 Designed for recent joiners and any other members/supporters who wish to learn more about the local Party, these are typically held prior to a Lib Dem Pint or other social event, providing an opportunity to stay on afterwards and meet other members and supporters, activists, councillors and parliamentary candidates. They consist of brief introductions followed by short talks by key activists, with topics typically covering The History and Philosophy of Liberalism, Council Group, Volunteering and Campaigning, and Members’ and Supporters’ Events. This is rounded off with a Q&A session. They’re held about once every 2 to 3 months. If you’d like to attend the next 101 please contact [email protected] LIB DEM PINT We hold a monthly social in a pub on a weekday evening, booking a function room or space for exclusive use. This is a great opportunity to meet others from across the city and discuss both local and national political events. You can also discuss volunteering opportunities with local party officers. This is a generally unstructured event but typically includes short talks from local politicians or candidates plus an update on upcoming campaigns and events, after 9 pm. PIZZA AND POLITICS These events are held approximately once every two months throughout the year where we have pizza and drinks and then discuss a policy paper or proposal. Recent events have covered sustainability, transport and Bristol Airport expansion.

    2016 Report Executive Summary INTRODUCTION This executive summary outlines the Happy City Pulse purpose and framework, and the headline findings from the 2016 Bristol Pilot. It aims to show how such data can inform local policy1 and cities now and in the future. Contents page Background to the project . .3–6 Happiness pulse framework . .7–8 2016 Pilot results . 9 Part 1: Overall picture of wellbeing . 10–13 Part 2: Wellbeing resilient wards . .14–18 Next steps . .19 1 We also have a range of case studies available demonstrating the role it can play for organisations Happiness Pulse: Executive Summary 2016 page 2 Why this and why now? Increasingly, economists, politicians, academics and environmentalists are recognising that we need to improve what and how we measure and define progress. Wellbeing is emerging as the front-runner as it encompassing elements of so much of our lives – including health, education, economy, environment and justice. Whilst much work is emerging at an international or national level on this, there is a significant gap when it comes to local scale change, despite the major pressures of urbanisation globally. Happy City is leading the field in providing innovative yet practical solutions to delivering real wellbeing improvement at a city-scale. 81% of Britons believe that the Government should prioritise creating the greatest happiness, not the greatest wealth. 81% of Britons believe that the Government should prioritise creating the greatest happiness, not the greatest wealth. statistic Happiness Pulse: Executive Summary 2016 page 3 A new measure of city wellbeing Policymakers and citizens in cities around the world are beginning to see the power of measuring wellbeing for public policy.
