Merry Christmas from Bristol Noise!
We are reflecting on what has been a very busy year for Team Noise. We started in May, seeing over 700 volunteers of all generations to help run around 20 different community events and over 50 practical projects across the whole city.
On the back of that, we have launched Noise 365 as a project to resource, network and release individuals and churches, all to collaborate and impact their local communities across our city and further afield. We have since seen a further 10 projects enhance different areas, supported 5 community events, and help connect volunteer groups together- all done whilst the weather got colder and wetter!
Behind the scenes, we have fund raised to keep the project going, launched a new website, and set up a second tools shed in the South of the city to compliment the one we have in Horfield. We are in a healthy place going into the new year, as we lay the foundations for more impact in the new year and beyond. This has also been seen in the exciting conversations we are having with different churches and organisations to explore ways of partnering together to see longer term initiatives launched to compliment projects and events.
We want to say a huge thank you to all who have volunteered, supported and helped us in any way to keep the spirit of the Noise active in communities across the city this year. 2025 is shaping up to be even more active and engaging- we can’t wait to reveal some of the plans we have in the pipeline.
We hope you have a fantastic Christmas, and hope to connect with you in the new year.

We need your help personally or as a church to be able grow our new Noise 365 vision. As you will probably appreciate, there is not much 'people resource' behind Bristol Noise charity but some very committed volunteers who give a lot of time.
