ACORN member Tina poses in a denim top with ACORN staff member Sam in a FILA shirt & black cap against an off-white background. Both are raising their left fists & holding a flyer advertising how to join ACORN.

🚩Member defence win!🚩

ACORN member Tina faced an illegal eviction & rent taken from her deposit after complaining that her “solo” room turned out to be a shared room with a divider. Tina came to ACORN & we not only helped her get out, but also pressured the landlord to return her deposit in full ✊

‘We have every right to be here’ Bristol’s Somalis tell Arron Banks The Reform candidate for West of England Metro Mayor had blamed Somalis for crime in Bristol

I was so pleased to meet the Nelson Trust in Bristol.

Their holistic preventative approach supports vulnerable women to rebuild their lives, many of whom have experienced the criminal justice system.

The evidence is clear: rehabilitation, not imprisonment, is the best way to reduce re-offending.

Proud to be both an Acorn member and one of the local ward councillors for Lawrence Hill, where the block is based. Residents of Barton House have been through so much and it's continuing to affect people's physical & mental health. I'll keep supporting the calls for rehousing for those who want it.
