Over the day 21 young people performed to an audience of over 100! Attendees to the event included Adam Devonshire of the band Idles who said of the showcase:

"To see youth projects like this, giving young people the opportunity to learn and grow as musicians, was truly amazing and inspiring. The confidence that comes from being given the tools to create music is immeasurable and projects like this are truly something to cherish. Long may it continue."

"Area of Effect rock band opening on main stage. Seeing these three 15 year-olds rise to the amazing opportunity of performing their set with hi spec stage and PA  and at such a public event was so exciting. It really upped their expectations and motivation in terms of performance, and it also opened them up to 1:2:1: music development and support." Troy Tanska, Basement Studios

5. End of Year Showcase Party, Trinity

"I was really proud of the range of performances - from those who'd never made music in front of others, to performances good enough to charge for. They were really respectful and supportive of each other - even though there were such varied genres and skills. It was a massive highlight seeing a young person who had such a difficult time in the past, but who turned their life around since being part of Making Tracks in the summer and is now at music college, absolutely smash it centre-stage. Such an honour to see the power of music in action." Troy Tanska, Basement Studios

Our objection relates to the absence of community consultation in relation to the proposals and that the Noise Impact Statement makes no reference to the development’s proximity to Trinity.

We understand there is a critical need to build new homes in the city and welcome conversations with developers wishing to invest in the area around us. Conversations with existing businesses are a standard part of any planning process and help to inform plans, limit the number of objections to any project and give developments the best chance of success.

We believe people not only need places to live, but also spaces to come together, socialise and celebrate. A development less than 200 yards from an existing live music venue - which has not taken any action to mitigate against noise impact on new tenants - must be challenged.

Trinity is member of newly formed Bristol@Night Board which has been set up to respond to issues affecting the city’s nightlife. We will be working with this board - which also involves Save Bristol Nightlife - in the new year, to ensure as a city we continue to support and protect what makes Bristol a great place to live, work and visit.

If you would like to make your own objection to the proposed development, please visit Bristol’s Planning Portal and make your own objections, or cut and paste the following:

I would like to object to the recently resubmitted planning application reference 18/06186/F (previous reference: 17/04953/F) for the following reason:-

Insufficient Mitigation of Noise for New Dwellings (Agent of Change principle)

The Noise Impact Statement is from Nov 2016 and there have been no revisions of this report since this application was last submitted. The report makes no reference to the fact that the development will be right next to an existing live music venue (est. 1976).

Therefore, no mitigating actions have been taken in relation to its proximity to the Trinity Centre and there is no acknowledgement or awareness of the proposed Agent of Change Principle.
