In Bristol, the mayor and cabinet have explicitly stated their support for a programme of work leading to the Sustainable Food Places Gold award, coordinated by Bristol Food Network, Bristol Green Capital Partnership, Bristol City Council and Resource Futures. The success of the work to date is due to the spirit of partnership between organisations in Bristol. The campaign around the mayoral elections is no different: several organisations will play a part in trying to ensure that a green, sustainable future is central to the candidates’ vision for the city.

In this spirit of collaborative work, Bristol Green Capital Partnership is organising a hustings with Bristol mayoral candidates on April 27. Building on the experience of a successful hustings in 2016, this hustings is delivered through an alliance of organisations including: Avon Wildlife Trust, Black & Green Ambassadors, Bristol Food Network, Campaign for Rural England, Eastside Community Trust, Friends of the Earth, Sustrans and XR. Doing the work in partnership with other organisations is beneficial for boosting the reach and number of people participating, spreading the workload and costs, ensuring a diversity of perspectives and strengthening the offer to candidates and audiences.
