Bishopston, Cotham, Redland
Neighbourhood Partnership Plan
2015/16 - 2017/18
Our vision is to make the Bishopston, Cotham, Redland Neighbourhood Partnerships area clean, green, safe, healthy and prosperous
Background
Bishopston, Cotham, Redland (BCR) Neighbourhood Partnership is situated in the north of the
city of Bristol. The 2011 census showed that there is a resident population of 38,200, the
second largest NP population in the city. 10% of the population is Black and minority ethnic
(city average 16%). BCR is one of the most affluent NP areas in Bristol. Educational attainment
is high in children at key stages 2 and 4; and the number of university graduates is among the
highest in the UK (as part of Bristol West Parliamentary constituency). Owner occupied
housing is about average but there are huge variances within the NP (Redland 68%, Cotham
39.7%); car ownership is one of the highest in the city, but more people cycle to work than any
other NP
Money


Purpose
This plan gives a full picture of the work the Neighbourhood Partnership will seek to deliver,
influence and support over the next 3 years (2015-18) as well as work it aspires to deliver if
resources become available. The Plan will:

Prioritise work and projects using resources at its disposal
Show aspirational work and projects to be prioritised and allocated against once resources are secured
 Be reviewed regularly
The planned activities all contribute to the Mayor’s priorities for Bristol.
Evidence



Both qualitative and quantitative data and evidence is shown to demonstrate why priorities are
included
For BCR, the desire is often to retain and build on the NP area’s high quality of life indicators,
rather than remedial work to deal with shortfalls
Neighbourhood Partnership Resources
The NP has a devolved (start of year) budget of £57,213. This is made up of what were previously the
Highways, Wellbeing and Clean and Green budgets. The NP is now free to allocate these funds
according to this plan, rather than the previous budget allocations.
The NP has some Section 106 funds. This is money that developers of larger sites pay to the council to
reduce the impact of the development. Developers sign a S106 agreement as part of their planning
permission. This is a legal document that specifies what the money is spent on and where. For example,
S106 money is used to make improvements to highways, parks, public transport and schools. The NP
can spend its S106 allocations providing they are within the criteria agreed with developers
Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) allows local planning authorities to raise funds from developers
who are undertaking new building projects in their area. The funds raised will go towards infrastructure
that is needed to support the growth of the city, such as schools and transport improvements. The NPs
receives a proportion of this CIL funding (BCR current total - £5,606.24), which it is able to spend within
the broader criteria set down in the CIL regulations (and the priorities in this plan)
Other funds may from time to time be allocated to the Neighbourhood Partnership for expenditure.
For example, Bristol Green Capital funding, Community Sports Action funds and Public Health funding.
The NP will seek to allocate or spend these funds according to the priorities agreed in this plan
