And most excitingly, it is a platform for those young people to question those in power. It is inspired by some young people we work with who have never visited the Clifton Suspension Bridge, the famous iconic spot that attracts tourists from all over the world. In South Bristol, there are nine out of ten of the most deprived wards, ten times less the number of people going to university, with a life expectancy gap of 12 years less than in other parts of the city. This runs incongruent with the global image of Bristol being a great success.


Our campaign aims to raise awareness by providing data, telling real stories, and lobbying local authorities, businesses, partners, and communities to act. We know the obvious barriers, but we also know the endless potential of young people we work with - and we feel the city needs to provide a wider range of opportunities and access for this potential to be fulfilled.
