Thanks to the huge efforts and extensive preparations from so many people... volunteers, schools and community groups, companies, individual donors, funders, and the Caring in Bristol team... the project has launched at The Trinity Centre as planned, and is open every day from Christmas Eve to December 30th (10am - 4pm). Our guests are being welcomed into a warm and friendly space. Food is provided by a host of top Bristol restaurants and caterers, and our guests' experience is supported by a range of festive and fun activities, as well as essential wellbeing services for those who need it.

If you've contributed to the project in any way... a big thank you! Look out for our impact report for a deeper dive into how it went. Work starts on this in January, and we'll be giving a shout out to the organisations and companies that have supported.

In the meantime... here's the ITV Westcountry package broadcast on the day before we launched, turning the Trinity Centre into a pop-up day centre!

And an interview with John Darvill on his BBC Radio Bristol show and two of our many dedicated and caring volunteers. Without them we couldn't create the largest project of its kind in the southwest.
