Abbotswood - have YOUR say this Saturday

As part of a week of action organised by South Glos Council, there will be an open morning at St Nicholas Church on Saturday from 10.00 am to 12.00 am. Police, Fire & Rescue and representatives of the NHS will be there too.

This is a chance for local people to say what they're concerned about in the community. Maybe for example you would like to go along and say what YOU think should be done about the Rodford Way crossing situation, where there was the fatal accident and another serious accident recently? Or maybe you're concerned about the crumbling steps or rubbish?

If you would like to make a difference to the rubbish situation, especially the morning after an England football match, you can join an "early bird" litter pick from 8 am until 9 am, meeting on the Chargrove side of St Nick's. South Glos will be providing bags and gloves.

During the week of action there will be quite a few young people's World Cup-themed activities going on at the St Nicholas Youth Centre. It's not all football either - there will also be a World Art Day and a World Food Day.
