  • Youth Culture and Nightlife in Bristol

    Youth Culture and Nightlife in Bristol

    Youth culture and nightlife in Bristol A report by: Meg Aubrey Paul Chatterton Robert Hollands Centre for Urban and Regional Development Studies and Department of Sociology and Social Policy University of Newcastle upon Tyne NE1 7RU, UK In 1982 there were pubs and a smattering of (God help us) cocktail bars. The middle-aged middle classes drank in wine bars. By 1992 there were theme pubs and theme bars, many of them dumping their old traditional names in favour of ‘humorous’ names like The Slug and Lettuce, The Spaceman and Chips or the Pestilence and Sausages (actually we’ve made the last two up). In 2001 we have a fair few pubs left, but the big news is bars, bright, shiny chic places which are designed to appeal to women rather more than blokes with swelling guts. In 1982 they shut in the afternoons and at 11pm weekdays and 10.30pm Sundays. In 2001 most drinking places open all day and many late into the night as well. In 1982 we had Whiteladies Road and in 2001 we have The Strip (Eugene Byrne, Venue Magazine July, 2001 p23). Bristol has suddenly become this cosmopolitan Paris of the South West. That is the aspiration of the council anyhow. For years it was a very boring provincial city to live in and that’s why the music that’s come out of it is so exciting. Cos it’s the product of people doing it for themselves. That’s a real punk-rock ethic. (Ian, music goer, Bristol). Contents Contents 2 List of Tables 5 Introduction 6 Chapter 1.

    BOPF & BCC Newsletter February 2021

    February 2021 Issue 4 Welcome to the Bristol Older People’s Forum and Bristol City Council’s COVID-19 information and advice newsletter. A message from Dr Neil Kerfoot Dear Residents The COVID-19 vaccination programme is well underway. 7 million people have now received their first dose, with the government aiming to give 15 million by mid-February. On Monday 11 January vaccinations began at Ashton Gate Stadium. If you do get invited to have your vaccine at Ashton Gate and are not able to get there, don’t worry. You will also receive an invitation for your vaccine at your local primary care centre. NHS England is following a national vaccination prioritisation list for national vaccination programme which is being delivered in phases starting with the most vulnerable. If you are waiting to hear about your vaccine you will be contacted as soon as it’s your turn so there is no need to contact your GP. Please be aware, there are a number of scam emails and text messages in circulation which claim to be from the NHS and ask people to provide payment details to verify their eligibility for the vaccine. The NHS would never ask anyone for their bank details. Once you have had your first vaccine, you will be contacted again to attend an appointment for your second dose, which will be offered up to 12 weeks later. The data around the vaccines has shown that the first vaccine is at least 74% effective in protecting against COVID-19. Public Health professionals are advising that it’s better for us to give the first jab to as many residents as possible to prevent people from becoming ill and requiring treatment in hospital, than to give a smaller number of residents both doses of the vaccine.
