Hello, I am with Charlie from Bristol World to discuss the top five news stories in Bristol
00:07
this week. So Charlie, what is our first story this week?
00:11
Yeah, so our first story this week is that a campaign to save the last pub in the Barton
00:16
Hill area of Bristol has hit the buffers as the owners have gone back on the tenancy deal.
00:23
This is according to the people who started a crowdfunder to reopen it. More than £45,000
00:29
has already been raised from 850 people to reopen the pub on the understanding that the
00:34
urgent repair work was done before they opened the doors.
00:39
So is this a story that's been kind of spoken about a lot?
00:42
It is and you know there's been a lot of excitement to get this pub back open. You think it's
00:48
the last one in Barton Hill in this neighbourhood in Bristol.
00:52
Brilliant, thank you Charlie. So should we move on to our second top story this week?
00:57
Tell us a little bit about that.
00:59
So our second top story is about Barton House and residents have been told this week, those
01:05
that were evacuated from the Tower Block in November, that they will be allowed to move
01:10
back into the building.
01:12
So have they told residents yet when they will have that date or is it a waiting game?
01:19
I think it's a bit of a waiting game. Residents have been told that they will be updated on
01:23
January the 8th.
01:25
Shall we move on to our third story this week? Tell us a little bit about that Charlie.
01:31
For sure. So our third story is that Bristol Steiner School has announced it is closing
01:37
but a group of parents have vowed to fight the plans to close this school.
01:43
Thank you Charlie. So shall we move on to our fourth story this week?
01:50
Yep. So our fourth story is that a site in Bristol that is currently occupied by an unauthorised
01:57
caravan encampment is set to become permitted by the council.
02:03
Thank you Charlie. So shall we finish with our final story this week? Tell us a little
02:09
bit about that.
02:10
So our final story is about this amazing Christmas light display that even includes a cookie
02:17
cabin of all things. So two brothers, Lee and Paul, have been decorating their mother's
02:23
house in Brentree since 1994 and this year's display is bigger and better than ever.
02:30
And it's all for charity. The family have been fundraising since 2007 and have raised
02:35
more than £100,000 in that time. All the money goes to the Grand Appeal and this year
02:43
the focus is on funding ventilators and yeah, might even include a special guest in a big
02:49
red suit. I wonder who that might be.
02:53
Thank you Charlie. So that is everybody up to date with our top five news stories in
02:58
Bristol this week. Whatever you're up to, have a great day.
