How We Do It
We are a charity made up of staff, volunteers and residents who work together to help to release power in our community. By working alongside residents in Southmead and North Bristol our teams support communities to be strong, vibrant and resourceful, through building connection, health, wellbeing, learning, employment opportunities, and pride of place.
We manage Greenway Centre and The Ranch Adventure Playground & Youth Space to provide inspiring and accessible community locations for children, young people, families, adults, community groups, partners and businesses. Our buildings are well-loved local venues and host popular community events throughout the year including the Southmead Festival and community pantomime.
The Ranch Children & Young People's Services
Providing safe spaces for children and young people to flourish is essential to a healthy, vibrant and energetic community. We manage The Ranch Adventure Playground & Youth Space. Our free, open access sessions for ages 8-18 are run by our Youth and Play team, supported by local Volunteers. Activities include sports, creative workshops, music, outdoor play, indoor play and hanging out. Working with partners across the City we ensure the voices of young people and children are heard. We are proud to be part of the Playful Bristol network.
The Ranch Link Foward team offers a referral service for one-to-one and group therapeutic sessions.
