A co-operative for community benefit. Owning local property in common. Fighting off the vultures of gentrification. "Land really is the Best Art." Warhol.
We're thrilled to announce we’ve been awarded a fantastic £25k grant from @AsdaFoundation to repair the roof of the PRSC building!
This support will make this community & arts space watertight, & paves the way for future improvements like solar panels ☀️

Great to have coverage by the BBC on our bid to buy Turbo Island
The auction is tomorrow and the current fact is we haven’t raised enough money.
If you can help us raise the funds please get in touch urgently.

The @PRStokesCroft & SC Land Trust say Bristol City Council have 3 days to save Turbo Island from being sold to developers, with plans for a 4 storey building on the tiny but 'iconic' spot.

We are calling for Wildstone to take Turbo Island out of next week’s auction, to give us time to raise funds from the community.
Turbo Island is vital part of Stokes Croft, and should be owned by the community.

Turbo Island is set to be sold at auction on 16 October.
The owners have rejected our request to delay the auction and give us time to plan and raise funds for a community purchase.
So now we urgently need your help to raise funds to purchase it!

This crowdfunder is a grassroots local campaign, with all funds raised going to the Stokes Croft Land Trust to pursue this purchase. We need to raise at least £100k.
