Bristol URBAN Programme - Introduction

The Bristol URBAN Programme is a community-led initiative to encourage and support local residents to regenerate the area where they live.

The URBAN area covers a population of over 17,000 residents in the wards of Ashley, parts of Easton and Lawrence Hill as shown on the area map. It includes St Pauls, St Werburghs, St Agnes, Barton Hill, Redcliffe, Old Market and parts of Easton.

The Programme's focus has been to improve the training and employment prospects of the local community, by increasing empowerment, participation and wealth and enhance the impact of existing regeneration programmes.
