Fiercely

religions practised.

green spaces, a buzzing food scene and fantastic festivals. And it’s a great
place to start a career too. Bristol is a hotbed of creativity,
commerce, innovation, research and tech. Home to start-ups and shared

Bristol has over 7,000 members of sports clubs, societies and networks, and
