Managing and Maintaining open spaces, events and transport
Downend & Bromley Heath Parish Council acts for the benefit of the local community.
The Parish Council is represented on many local organisations and management bodies, and closely liaises with South Gloucestershire Council on all parish matters, including planning applications.
We support local organisations and contribute to the care of public rights of way. We give grants to local organisations, support local groups and 'Friends' groups, and detached youth work. In conjunction with neighbouring parishes and South Gloucestershire Council, we support a night bus through the area.
We manage and maintain the local skateboard park at Bromley Heath, in addition to all the local bus shelters, some seating, litter bins and dog bins - further details can be found in the specific section for each committee opposite.
In addition to this website, newsletters are produced three times per year to keep local residents informed.

South Gloucestershire Council - Broadband Survey Results
You may recall that South Gloucestershire Council undertook a Broadband survey from November 2011 to February of this year. Find out more here.
There was an excellent response rate (4000 altogether). The results of the survey are helpful evidence of the demand for faster broadband in South Gloucestershire.
