Work to transform Bristol’s old magistrates court into a new creative enterprise hub could start as soon as September after the project secured a “crucial” funding boost.
Local charity Creative Youth Network is looking to redevelop the grade II-listed building in Bridewell Street - left derelict for almost 50 years - in a bid to improve employment and learning opportunities for young people from disadvantaged backgrounds.
The organisation said the scheme, which is known as The Courts, would facilitate training in drama, music, film, animation, IT and games design.
