Going for Gold campaign launch
It’s been a long time in the making, but we are finally ready to launch Bristol’s campaign to become a Gold Award Sustainable Food City.
Working alongside Bristol Green Capital Partnership and Bristol City Council, we have been developing a website which will allow everyone in the city to be part of Going for Gold.
Join us at the Bristol Green Capital Partnership’s Green Mingle this Thursday 2 May from 5.30pm at The Kitchen, Silver Street, to find out how you can get involved, or after the launch, sign-up at: www.goingforgoldbristol.co.uk
