Bristol Rise is a grass-roots, fledgling organisation started up by and made up of 8 local Bristolian women who feel passionate about rising up against gender violence on a local and ultimately global level.
We were formed after the resounding success of One Billion Rising Bristol on 14 February 2013 when we took to the streets of Bristol and - through dance, song and march - demanded an end to violence against women.
We have since hosted a community day and a charity fundraiser and are currently petitioning for sex education to be modernised.
We will be rising again on 14th February 2014 for the 2nd annual One Billion Rising! see our events page for more info.
