Barry Henderson addreses the Inaugural Meeting of Riverside Community Voice

Riverside Community Voice

How We Began.. People living on Bath Western Riverside resolved to set up a new group to represent their interests at a packed public meeting on 21 March 2017 at the Belvoir Castle pub. This group has now become Riverside Community Voice. (Nov 2019 AGM at Coffee#1 pictured)

Our Aim.  We are an inclusive organisation for everyone living in the Western Riverside area, whether they own or rent their home. Our aim is to promote the collective interests of those who live here, whilst striving to develop a cohesive and vibrant community.

Members of the Committee also meet regularly with Pinnacle Property Management. Reports of meetings are covered in regular newsletters from the RCV Chair..

In Aug 2018 residents set up of a residents'/owners' group for Royal View. Since then Alexandra House Action Group has been set up. It is possible that more sub-groups of this type might come into being. RCV is very happy to welcome and give support to these groups where possible.

Although our accent is on Riverside community matters, we are also members of FoBRA, the Federation of Bath Residents' Associations, which deals in depth with all of the burning issues of the day city-wide.
