Sea Mills Community Initiatives

Community Showcase  

We had a wonderful sunny day at the end of March 2025 getting to explore local places and discover more about what’s happening locally. We’re really grateful for everyone who gave their time to participate in this event whether as volunteers, organisers or as visitors. Please take a look through some of the highlights of the day and read on to find out more about what suggestions and feedback we had from the day.

What the day was all about:

As part of the Bristol Community Festival we hosted a community showcase on March 29th 2025 to celebrate and champion all that goes on in Sea Mills/Coombe Dingle run by volunteers and community groups. We gave local people an opportunity to discover more about what’s happening in their community, to share their views on community activities, to learn about the area's history, and find new ways to connect.

We created an interactive trail throughout the local area, inviting visitors to explore and engage with community spaces. Trail maps encouraged families and individuals to explore, collecting stamps at each location along the way.

In the afternoon, we hosted a Showcase featuring other Sea Mills and Coombe Dingle projects and initiatives. This was a celebration of organisations and individuals who positively impact our community. These groups/individuals had the opportunity to represent themselves and their work through community stands, demonstrations, exhibits, and displays.
