Developing the VCSE Strategic Partnership

The VCSE sector in Gloucestershire is developing a Strategic Partnership for Wellbeing.

This is an elected group of VCSE leaders with responsibility for the strategic direction and governance of VCSE engagement with One Gloucestershire Integrated Care System (ICS).

Nominations are welcome from individuals who are employed or working in a voluntary capacity in a Gloucestershire VCSE organisation or group that is either directly concerned with wellbeing, health or social care or operates in an area which broadly impacts on citizens’ wellbeing such as transport, housing, debt advice or community development.  

We are looking for individuals who have big ambitions for what the VCSE sector in Gloucestershire can achieve by working together and with the ICS to tackle health inequalities in our communities.

We encourage nominations from people from a wide range of backgrounds and organisations. We anticipate that at least half of the Strategic Partnership members will be from smaller organisations and those that are user or community led.

Working for a Healthier Gloucestershire is a short video about tackling health inequalities through developing the partnership between the VCSE sector and One Gloucestershire ICS.

Interested in finding out more? You are invited to have an informal conversation with Matt Lennard and Jill Parker on either 16th or 20th June. These sessions can take place face-to-face or on-line.
