Thornbury & Yate MP Steve Webb and South Gloucestershire Citizen’s Advice Bureau are working together on a new project to ensure the continuation of CAB services in Thornbury.   Earlier this year, the local community responded with great generosity to a campaign organised by the Thornbury Gazette to raise the £12,000 needed to keep the Thornbury bureau open for a year.  

Thornbury & Yate Liberal Democrats have been joined for their annual constituency dinner this year by Cabinet minister Vince Cable, Secretary of State for Business.  Vince Cable addressed a packed dinner on Saturday evening (16^thNovember) at Turnberrie’s community centre in Thornbury after undertaking a visit to a community energy event in the constituency earlier in the day.
