My only purpose is to make Bristol, the city I love, a better city for all. — Mayor George Ferguson

George Ferguson CBE, PPRIBA, RWA has learned, lived and worked in Bristol since 1965. He is a renowned British architect, entrepreneur, and, in November 2012, became the first elected mayor of Bristol. With Mayor George Ferguson’s determined leadership, Bristol is able to progress, for example:

Our Arena is on the way!

Bristol1st is a 'party of one' supported by an energetic group of volunteers who back the independent Mayor of Bristol, George Ferguson.

Bristol1st exists to put Bristol first and help stop any return to party political control. We welcome participation from all of Bristol as part of presenting a fully inclusive 'party of one'

Building an effective campaign fund that can compete with the major political parties means that we have to raise tens of thousands of pounds between now and 2016.

We are raising funds for Bristol1st online via fundsurfer, a new funding platform created and built here in Bristol. Every donation helps towards ensuring party politics stay out of the mayoral role in Bristol.

George supports local businesses and the Bristol Pound. You will soon be able to donate Bristol Pounds via Fundsurfer but you can use debit/ credit cards and PayPal.

Fundsurfer is a Bristol company based in the Temple Quarter Enterprise Zone.

"My only purpose is to make Bristol, the city I love, a better city for all. I have no political ambition beyond Bristol where I have chosen to live and work for 49 years. I plan to run for re-election in 2016 to continue our progress against the vision. Let's continue to make change happen together and put Bristol first"

George Ferguson
