As it stands the course is not GOC accredited. Does this mean I could potentially do 1-3 years of the course only to be told it does not meet GOC requirements and so i'd have to do it all over again at another uni?

From what I've researched recently, as optometry is a degree I'm considering too, an unaccredited optometry degree will essentially be a waste as most won't even consider you without the accreditation.

I quite like how Bristol are only taking on 30 optom students this year, will be like one big family, and they've spent 3 million on a new optom suite. Where were you considering studying it?

The Optometry degree is at *UWE*, not Uni of Bristol :https://courses.uwe.ac.uk/B510/optometry

A provisional GOC accreditation is held by a few unis but are recognised by professional bodies and the GOC. A uni doesn't obtain full accreditation until it's first cohort completes the course. All in all its a safe option to apply to UWE, i'm currently studying Optometry here and I find this course a whole lot better than what was explained to me from other student studying Optometry elsewhere.
Best of luck!!!
