  • The Road to Bristol Old Vic
    250 YEARS OLD Thank you for being part of one of the most significant anniversaries in the history of British theatre. We’ve done our best to curate a programme worthy of your efforts, inspired by the astonishing creativity of the thousands of artists – from Sarah Siddons to Sally Cookson – who have delighted and entertained you and your forebears over the last 250 years. But at heart, ours is a story of passion, survival and reinvention. All the other theatres producing plays in 1766 have fallen down or been demolished because, at some point in their history, their audiences abandoned them. This one has survived because each time it’s faced disaster, Bristolians from all over the world have given it new life. It happened in 1800, when popular demand led to the ceiling being tipped up and the new gallery being built, increasing the capacity to an eye-watering 1,600. It happened in 1933 when Blanche Rogers initiated the campaign that the old place should be saved and become ‘Bristol’s Old Vic’. It happened in 2007 when Dick Penny held the open meeting (which many of you attended), leading to the Arts Council continuing its vital support for the theatre. And it’s happening throughout this wonderful anniversary, as you carry us towards the final stage of the refurbishment that will set us securely on our adventures over the next 250 years. So as you read about the shows we’re staging and the projects we’re curating during our birthday year, don’t forget to give yourself a warm pat on the back for being the people who are, in the end, responsible for all of it.

  • Walks Programme March - June 2014
    Walks programme March - June 2014 For further information please call the Leisure and Libraries helpdesk on 01454 868006 or visit www.southglos.gov.uk/walkingforhealth walkthisway www.southglos.gov.uk/walkingforhealth 1 Walking for health in South Gloucestershire The project started in 2002 with the aim of helping residents to do more physical activity. This is done via led health walks in the community which are suitable for a range of abilities and are free of charge. Over the last 10 years more than 3,000 people have walked with us. We are delighted that lots of people who walk with us regularly now walk on their own and with other groups such as the Ramblers, or progress onto other activities. Walking is a low-risk, low intensity activity suitable for people new to exercise or who are recovering from injury, surgery (upon medical clearance) or ill health. The walks we provide are for people who want to walk for health benefits at a moderate pace over distances of up to four miles. The walk leader will try to set and maintain a pace which they feel is appropriate for the group and route. If you find it is too fast please slow down to a pace which is comfortable for you. As a rough guide you should be able to walk and talk, but feel a bit warm with slightly elevated breathing. Please do not walk in front of the walk leader. 2 How are the walks graded? The following is a guide, but we urge you to walk at a pace that is comfortable for you.
