Introduction Communities Minister Stephen Williams announced a new £6 million funding boost to the Community Rights programme on 17 February 2015, this boost was aimed at giving even more people greater control and influence over what happens locally. Ambition Lawrence Weston is one of fifty communitiesthat have received support to develop economic plans to address local economic priorities like job creation and enterprise. As part of this programme, Ambition Lawrence Weston commissioned Karl Belizaire of Social Enterprise Works in Bristol to research and write this Community Economic Development Plan. The Plan incorporates and builds upon several existing strategic local plans, including the Lawrence Weston Community Plan; the Lawrence Weston Neighbourhood Development Plan and Lawrence Weston Big Local Plan. Priorities for the Lawrence Weston Community Economic Development plan have been derived from a combination of key stakeholder consultations; existing plan and needs analysis and exploring the feasibility for sustainable economic activities. This CED plan is a working document, and will evolve as initiatives take further shape. What is Community Economic Development? The Community Economic Development (CED) programme is a new initiative designed for local community groups and organisations who want to take a lead in shaping their economies for the benefit of local communities. CED gives people the opportunity to shape how their economy develops. The approach recognises that local economies are characterised by the relationships and activities which everyone faces, based around where you live, work and play. CED is being led by Co-operatives UK and delivered in partnership with New Economics Foundation, Locality, Community Development Foundation and the Community Development Finance Association. Ambition Lawrence Weston CED Plan 2016 3 2. Context Geographicarea Lawrence Weston is a post war housing estate in north-west Bristol between Henbury and Shirehampton. The estate is bounded in the east by the Blaise Castle estate and woods. It is situated at the edge of the Severn flood plain, directly beneath the wooded Kingsweston Hill. The industrial complex and port of Avonmouth is a mile or so west, across the flood plain. Lawrence Weston forms part of the city ward of Kingsweston. Lawrence Weston has a strong physical identity, but struggled to develop independent community identity, due to a variety of factors, including council housing control, faith schools and that the Boundary Commission refusal to accept the case for a stand-alone Lawrence Weston ward. Lawrence Weston (LW) is a place where people live, but not necessarily where they work (learn) or play (shop, leisure, other interests). Lawrence Weston is a great place to live because it has: A long standing community and newly arrived residents working together to improve the neighbourhood; A fantastic community farm; Access to greenspace, wildlife and nature; Facilities for older residents including lunch clubs, walking groups and health services; A community newsletter and website; Its own Community Transport scheme; Access to jobs in nearby Avonmouth and good proximity to the motorway;A real sense of community – a place where people look after one another. “Lawrence Weston is a friendly and vibrant neighbourhood where the word community really matters!” – Local resident Howeverthere are not enough opportunities locally, there is a bad mix of housing that has led to a transient population; there is a lack of recreational facilities and socialising; there is no shopping retail heart to LW; and there is a negative perception of the area (internally and externally).Additionallyas Bristol City Council resources become increasingly stretched, and home ownership shifts towards a more private model, there is likely to be a shift in the future identity of Lawrence Weston. Ambition Lawrence Weston CED Plan 2016 4 Location profile The Ambition Lawrence Weston Location Profile uses the wards Avonmouth and Kingsweston as the geographical area, in which we can access data and statistics about the community area. We can provide an overview of the community area by using a series of key indicators that score an area against the average for the country - this provides an illustration of the area’s relative strengths and weaknesses. Source: ABI (2009); Census (2011); Business Register and Employment Survey (2013); LA Summaries ID (2010); DFT accessibility statistics (2011) In terms of measures of relative deprivation, both wards are above the national average, and both wards have the opportunity to reap the benefits of a wide range of services and proficient use of public transport. The state of the business base in the local area gives an indication of the vitality of the local economy, as well as an insight into the levels of entrepreneurship in the community. Information taken from the ABI indicates that Avonmouth has almost double the number of SMEs and larger businesses that the West of England, however by comparison the Avonmouth and Kingsweston wards have rather lower levels of self-employment than the rest of the region. There are a number of statistics associated with the labour market for an area, specifically looking at the levels of employment and unemployment in the area. The health of the labour market in a particular area should be seen in the context of wider employment trends over time. The most alarming highlight from these figures show that Avonmouth and Kingsweston wards have over double the number of claimantsreceiving Job SeekersAllowance than the proportionate population of Bristol and over 3 times the rate than the West of England.

Data from the 2011 Census show that the Avonmouth and Kingsweston wards have significantly less residents achieving University equivalent education, and proportionately higher levels of people with no qualifications at all. Source: Census (2011) This statistical dataof the location profile, highlights the highlevels of unemployment in the Lawrence Weston Area twinned with low levels of educational attainment, which creates a Ambition Lawrence Weston CED Plan 2016 6 challenging environment to develop a strong local economy, underlining the much needed work of organisations like Ambition Lawrence Weston. Ambition Lawrence Weston Ambition Lawrence Weston (ALW) is a charitable organisation with residents at the driving seat. It is working in partnership with public, private and voluntary sector organisations to make Lawrence Weston a better place.

  • Shirehampton Remount Depot
    Shirehampton Remount Depot During World War I the main form of transport for troops, munitions and supplies was the horse or mule. The military effort on the Western Front from August 1914 to November 1918 required a continual supply of these animals. Several Remount Depots were set up across the UK to help maintain this supply. Shirehampton was one of the largest and over 300,000 horses passed through Shirehapmton and Avonmouth between 1914 and 1918.

Naming Shirehampton and the name Shirehampton Abstract: Focusing on the place-name Shirehampton in England, this article explores (1) the complications involved in understanding the history of a particularly difficult place-name (an etymological and philological question) and in the history of the naming of the place in question (an onomasiological question), (2) some practical consequences of different understandings of the place-name at different points in history (a historiographical question), and (3) the historical transfer of this name into other onomastic categories (a semasiological question and a culturally and theoretically interesting question). Some new understandings of the name and its history are proposed. The article can be taken as an object lesson in the lexical- semantic and phonological difficulties of historical onomastics (and therefore as academically routine), and also in the pleasures of travelling unexpected byways in the history of onomastics and in cultural history. It endeavours to affirm, by example, the case for historical onomastics as a discipline which ranges more widely than 6 RICHARD COATES establishing the etymology of a name, and explores finally some issues of theoretical and methodological interest.

  • Bristol Urban Potential Assessment: February 2018
    West of England Joint Spatial Plan Bristol Local Plan Review Urban Potential Assessment Published February 2018 Photo: Kendall Kingscott Ltd. i Bristol Urban Potential Assessment Published February 2018 Summary Bristol has experienced sustained population growth since 2004 and has seen a high number of new homes completed over the same period. The vast majority of new homes delivered over this period have been on brownfield land, with only a small proportion being built on greenfield sites. Bristol City Council has carried out a thorough urban potential assessment which has established the capacity of the urban area to deliver around a further 12,400 homes by 2036 on sites of ten or more dwellings. As well as a general citywide search for brownfield development potential, focused studies have been carried out of the potential from other sources of land, including safeguarded industrial land, undeveloped land, the conversion or redevelopment of city centre offices and higher density forms of development on existing Bristol Local Plan site allocations. The assessment was carried out over the period June 2015 to March 2016. Based on consistent density assumptions and considered constraints analysis, Bristol’s estimated capacity to accommodate new homes over the period to 2036 on sites of ten or more dwellings, above and beyond those already planned and forecast, is as follows: Source Approx potential homes Main citywide site search 6,150 Potential from underused industrial land 1,500 Potential from undeveloped land 1,000 Potential from city centre office sites 2,150 Uplift of site allocations 1,600 Total 12,400 In addition to the baseline capacity set out above, a number of locations have been identified in which land with potential for new homes is highly clustered, where interventions could help to bring forward a considerable additional supply of new homes.
