Bristol invites Muslim women to join the debate

Muslim women from across Bristol are being invited to help shape the agenda of a community event being held later this year.

The Bristol Big Sisters event, which will take place this October, is aimed at bringing  Muslim women and their friends and allies together to discuss issues and topics important to them, to network, to inspire and be inspired. 

The discussions will then be used to draw up an action plan to address any issues arising from the event, which is the first of its kind to be held in Bristol.

The Neighbourhood Forums are an opportunity to meet with residents and decision makers and have your voice heard about local issues that are important in your community. 

This forum is themed around waste and streetscene. Bristol Waste Company will present ideas for changing waste services in the Stapleton Road area, and Tidy BS5 will talk about their community initiatives to tackle issues with waste and fly tipping. 

Marvin Rees, Mayor of Bristol, took office in May 2016 wanting a city where everyone benefits from success and no-one is left behind; where life chances are not determined by wealth and background; where inequality is challenged and social mobility promoted; where the cultural offer reflects city diversity and enriches the lives of all people.
