Bon appetit: George Opondo, head chef at Ashton Gate, prepares dinner for the more than 700 people who attended the Anti-Banquet event at the stadium. The event is part of a drive to raise £100,000 to fight food poverty in Bristol.

Practice makes perfect: Mel Giedroyc, former Great British Bake Off, Let it Shine and Eurovision Song Contest presenter, winks at the camera during rehearsals for the musical Starter for Ten, which started its run at Bristol Old Vic on Saturday.

Welcome to spring: Parts of Bristol woke up to a covering of snow early on Saturday. Luke Joy-Smith managed to get some bike time in (above) while snowmen popped up in parks all across the north of the city, including this one keeping watch over the running track in Elm Park, Filton (below).

Friday's angel: Volunteer Jane gets ready to serve goat and chicken curry, and home-made naans, to the homeless at the Julian Trust Night Shelter in St Pauls. Evening Supervisor Dush said the food was "proper hospitality for the most marginalised". Being able to provide the meals - they serve about 60 to 80 a night, four times a week - and the overnight stays depend on having enough volunteers.
