Blooming Whiteway

Blooming Whiteway is about growing plants – especially food, growing biodiversity & growing us as a community!
Based on the Whiteway estate we sit between Bath City Farm and open countryside – a great spot.
We are fascinated by what happens over, under and around the garden fence. We’re curious about how gardens connect with each other through the lifecycle of insects, birds, plants, mircrobes and more.
We work to enhance the biodiversity of the area and are dedicated to growing ecologically.
We’re part of entangled conversations and activities in Bath and beyond which address the Climate and Ecological Emergencies.

Creative Twerton (Little Lost Robot)

Little Lost Robot offers free, creative drop-in sessions at Creative Twerton, and Creative Radstock.

Creative Twerton is a free, safe space on Twerton High Street, led by the community. Set up for adults and children to flourish and develop their creative skills, using both practical and digital mediums, all tools and materials are provided, as well as free refreshments, hot food and lots of toys.

The aim is to demystify the creative and tech industry, and give underrepresented communities the chance to gain hands-on experience of making. Disused buildings in both locations have been selected as creative hubs, giving these spaces a much-needed new lease of life.

These drop-in sessions are relaxed, fun and accessible with the aim of building confidence and developing skills.

In addition to this, more direct routes into further training, volunteering and employment are on offer. This includes Artists as Leaders training, residencies and freelance opportunities, as well as short courses for anyone who wants to continue.

See social media for latest opening days and times.

Southside Family Project

Southside Family Project has been rooted in the local community since it developed from the Whiteway Health Project some thirty years ago.

Southside supports individuals and families to make positive changes in their lives – through whole family support, domestic abuse crisis support, counselling, volunteering and community hub groups.

Southside is there for you whether you are grappling with problems such as domestic abuse, substance abuse, mental health difficulties; or problems with finance and debt, housing issues or concerns related to education and employment.

They don’t have a magic wand – but based on an assessment of your needs they can provide a wide range of specific services that aim to give you the tools to make positive change in your life and that of your family.

Please contact them directly for advice, information and signposting, or further information about self-referrals for their whole family and domestic abuse support services:
