The Greater Brislington Neighbourhood Partnership brings public sector decision making to a local level where local residents can influence how they would like to see their neighbourhood improve. The Neighbourhood Partnership makes budget decisions and has influence over some public services such as street cleaning, minor traffic schemes and community safety. Local councillors make the final decisions at Neighbourhood Partnership meetings about how council money is spent.

Neighbourhood Partnership meetings
The Greater Brislington Neighbourhood Partnership is a decision-making body, with a formal agenda which meets on a regular basis in the local community. Membership includes the local ward councillors, representatives from local residents, community and voluntary groups including the Brislington Community Partnership, NHS Bristol, Police and Avon Fire & Rescue. Everyone in the community is welcome to come along to the meetings to see the local decisions being made.
Neighbourhood Forum Meetings
The Brislington Neighbourhood Forums are regular meetings that give local residents the opportunity to raise their ideas and suggestions on how to improve their neighbourhood and the chance to influence how some local public services are delivered. You can hear about what's going on in your community and meet your service providers including Bristol City Council, Neighbourhood Policing Teams and other partners. The meetings are relaxed and you can drop in for our "round robin" sessions and get updates without having to stay for the whole meeting. For more information and next meetings, see here.
Environment Group Meetings
The Greater Brislington Environment Group meets every 3 months and takes part in discussions about investments in the area's parks, gets updates on the Discover Brislington Brook project and many other environmental interest projects.
For more information and next meetings for the Neighbourhood Partnership, Neighbourhood Forum and Environment Group, see here.
