A self-publishing community
Our community writes The Mead; it contains a range of stories, news, listings and notices contributed by Southmead Residents, Volunteers and Workers, as well as those who want to reach our residents.
If you run a group or volunteer/work for an organisation please encourage your contacts to contribute items. Each item requires a photo (unedited and at best resolution).
Please check the home page for printing deadlines.

Southmead Development Trust supports and sponsors The Mead. From 2004 – 2022 it was run by community volunteers.

Our Fourteen grant via Quartet helped us to work towards sustainability in 2017-2018.
