About this Event
You are invited to join the Bristol One City - City Gathering.
DATE: 8th November
TIME: 13:00 - 17:00
VENUE: The Great Hall, Wills Memorial Building, Queens Rd, Bristol BS8 1RJ
You will be part of a city-wide audience that brings together leaders from the public, private, voluntary and community sectors to deliver the One City Vision that by 2050, Bristol will be a fair, healthy and sustainable city, a city of hope and aspiration where everyone can share in its success.
Expect an exciting line up of expert speakers, insightful presentations, participatory activities, enthusiastic discussions, and networking to encourage city-wide collaboration towards achieving the One City Plan.
Attendees at previous events decribed the gathering as 'energising and inspiring' (Voscur), developing 'exciting new partnerships' (Welcoming Spaces) and having 'brilliant contributors' and 'motivated pannelists' (Avison Young).
We are excited to take the City Gathering to the University of Bristol's Wills Memorial Building, an iconic and inspring venue where, as usual, there will be plenty of opportunities to network and engage with others in the room.
