We’ve turned 15! The opening night of our retrospective exhibition was a wonderful way to commemorate fifteen incredible years of Alive. Reflecting on our journey that began in 2009 and the various projects and services we’ve run ever since, the exhibition allowed us to consider the impact Alive has made.
We were honoured to receive a High Sheriff Award last night for our contributions to older people in Bristol. A heartfelt thank you to Richard Pendlebury for joining us.
As we bid farewell to our Chair of Trustees, Phil May, thanks also go to one of our biggest advocates who is stepping into his retirement. Phil has been at the heart of the charity for so long and we wouldn’t be here today without his support.
Welcoming friends of the charity, partners, trustees, volunteers, and both former and current staff, we are immensely grateful to everyone who celebrated with us.
Our CEO, Isobel Jones, remarked: “It was a privilege to share, last night, our work and those we have reached over the years. To pay tribute to our founder, Tim, and everyone along the way for their dedication and efforts over the years. It has just been incredible and very emotional!”
The ‘Celebrating 15 Years of Alive’ exhibition will be open until mid-November at Create Centre, Bristol. Free entry – all welcome!
