A Message of Support
North Bristol Advice Centre are deeply saddened and appalled by the recent surge of racist violence sweeping across our country and particularly our community here in Bristol. Our thoughts and solidarity are with all communities affected by these heinous acts. We unequivocally condemn such violence and stand united with the people who are targeted, as well as with our partners in the legal advice sector and charities supporting refugees and asylum seekers.
Bristol, as a recognised City of Sanctuary, has a proud tradition of welcoming and supporting those fleeing persecution, violence, and hardship. This status is a testament to our City’s commitment to inclusivity, safety, and hope for all who seek refuge here. Time and again Bristol has stood up in defence against racist incursions and we are proud to see that those defending our communities vastly outnumber those who are intent on inflicting violent hatred.
NBAC remains dedicated to supporting all people in our communities. We stand in solidarity with all those affected and will continue to work towards a more inclusive and supportive community where everyone feels safe and welcome.
