Welcome to Alveston.org - your online guide to events in and around Alveston, Rudgeway and Earthcott, and the home of Alveston Parish Council information.
We are posting updates, cancellations and postponements of events as decisions are made. Keep an eye on our events calendar for details on individual events, and let us know if you'd like to make any changes to information we have posted on your behalf.
If you've got anything you'd like publicised, don't hesitate to get in touch.

We may be stuck indoors but you can still complete your weekly workouts. Access FREE online Les Mills classes thanks to your local Active Centre... including mindful meditation, Body Combat and children’s classes.
Waste is an essential service and we are doing all we can to continue collections during the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak whilst protecting our staff and residents. This means making some changes to waste services so we can collect everyone’s waste and recycling with reduced staff levels and minimum disruption.

COVID-19 Help, Support And Volunteering South Glos and Bristol now have a web page setup with links and information to hopefully help people. This web page is more South Glos area focused rather than local area focused.
In light of events unfolding over the weekend in relation to Coronavirus (COVID-19) the Trustees of the National Garden Scheme have taken the difficult decision to ask all the charity’s garden owners not to open their gardens until further notice.
We are able to collect prescriptions for passengers so if you need something collected please let us know. All of our drivers carry ID. And we could tell you the name of the driver that would be coming to the pharmacy for extra security. We will also drop on doorstep to minimise contact. We are going to charge delivery but would take this over the phone again to minimise contact etc.
We are hoping to get something regular set up shopping wise, it looks like we may have to work with some of the smaller local shops. If you do need help with anything like this please let us know so we can add you to our list. We are only getting essentials at present.
The police have stopped all Beat Surgeries and external forums, we are still conducting hi-visibility patrols, we have reduced the number of stations we have open and would encourage members of the public to contact us by email when it isn’t urgent. There is obviously a demand on us for clarity around certain things being implemented and again would encourage people to refer to the Government websites and NHS websites rather than us.

In light of current circumstances the Parish Council agreed to cancel all meetings scheduled for April, including the residents' ANNUAL PARISH MEETING. A further decision will be made relating to May’s meetings at the end of April particularly with regard to the Annual Parish Meeting. An update will be posted on Alveston.org then. Thank you for your understanding.
Further to government guidance the play area located at the Down Road Green Space and the play area and associated play equipment around the Lime Kiln Field, Greenhill will be closed until further notice. Unfortunately the Parish Council are unable to provide a date for their re-opening at the moment.
Your understanding is appreciated.
We are so sorry to announce that Razzamataz Bristol North will be closing with immediate effect. We are hoping that we will be able to resume as soon as possible. An email will be sent to all our customers with full and further details later today. Anyone who hasn't received our emails please get in touch and make sure we have your correct contact information.
We cannot overstate the importance and great value we hold in our parents, guardians, students and staff for their continuing support. We would fail to exist without this support.
To Myself and my Staff Razzamataz is more than just a job, we love each and every student and we will continue to be there if anyone needs us.
To our Parents, students and staff please take great care in this testing, uncertain and stressful time; there is nothing more important than health and we hope to welcome our amazing students back to razz as soon as possible!

South Gloucestershire Council has issued a range of information and guidance materials to support the increasing number of informal and formal community groups that are springing up in neighbourhoods across the district to help those having to self-isolate.
The Community Aid South Glos pack has been distributed via town and parish Councils, who play a key role at the heart of their communities and are already helping to coordinate local responses. We are also seeing groups as small as residents in the same street starting a WhatsApp group so that neighbours can share offers of help and requests for assistance with shopping or picking up prescriptions for those who are required to self-isolate during the COVID-19 outbreak.
