This year, we are holding a photography competition in the city, with the theme: “I love Bristol because….” We want to encourage members of the public to take a photo of their favourite building or open space in Bristol, and to send this to us. The best of these photographs will be awarded prizes, based on creativity, imagination and originality.

Public Spaces

Public spaces for the Bristol Civic Society encompass not just our much loved 'green' spaces like Queen Square or College Green but all areas that encourage pedestrian activity such as the Centre, Millennium Square and our pavements. The public spaces group engages with the Council to influence the quality and use of public spaces.
Background
Inspiration for the group comes from Henry Shaftoe and his notes can read by click here.
Current Focus
BCS response to Council scheme
The Bristol Civic Society response to the Council scheme for licensing tables and chairs on the pavement can be found here.
St James Barton Roundabout
The group are currently working on proposals to improve the St James Barton roundabout, otherwise known as the Bearpit - suggestions from the public are welcome via our BCS blog.
