  • URBAN LIVING SPD Making Successful Places at Higher Densities
    Adopted November 2018 URBAN LIVING SPD Making successful places at higher densities Growth and Regeneration Foreword We are committed to make the most of the development land available in the city to support the significant increase in new-and-affordable homes and infrastructure we desperately need. In the last 20 years, there has been a dramatic shift with people returning to live in or close to the city centre. This urban renaissance has led to apartment living being commonplace in Bristol. The more successful schemes combine homes with cafes, shops, community uses and workplaces to create vibrant spaces with a high quality public realm. With this renewed appetite amongst developers to build at higher densities, including tall buildings, it is important that we strengthen our planning guidance to ensure that we learn from successful places and don’t repeat any mistakes from the past. We want to ensure that future development of the city is inclusive by design, where neighbourhoods are not Credits isolated but interconnected so that varied social, economic and cultural opportunities are This document has been prepared by the City Design Group at Bristol accessible to all. Whilst tall buildings are one way of potentially optimising densities, they City Council. aren’t the only way, and aren’t appropriate in all circumstances.

Today, the ESU is a global educational charity with its international headquarters at Dartmouth House in London, almost 40 branches in the UK and a presence in more than 50 countries worldwide. The aims of the ESU have remained the same – to promote global understanding through English, to help build confidence and effective communication skills and to help people realise their potential. The Centre for Speech and Debate (now the Speech and Debate department) was established in 1995 to coordinate the work of the ESU in persuasive spoken English. The Public Speaking Competition for Schools was started by ESU Brighton branch in 1960 (now the Brighton & Hove branch). Since then, the competition has been organised locally by the various ESU branches across the UK, and centrally by the National Public Speaking Coordinator in London. In 2010, the Speech and Debate department took over the Public Speaking Competition for Schools; it now coordinates the competition on a national level.

We are also seeing new people joining the church CHILDREN AND YOUTH and it is so encouraging to be exploring together the joy and challenge of discipleship. Hopefully you will be aware that over 50 members of small groups from across the SUNDAY MORNINGS church recently gathered for a meal in the church halls to share fellowship and receive some teaching from David Lawrence of LICC on the links between small groups and At Redland, we want to see all children and young people flourish and thrive being disciples in our whole life - whether at work or home, with friends or as we gather as part of the church family.
