In March, we hosted an online information session and debate about the upcoming Local Government Reforms.

We were joined by Siobhan Farmer (Director of Public Health, Gloucestershire County Council) and Alex Khaldi (Local Government Reform Advisor, Gloucestershire County Council).

The Government has announced major changes to NHS structures, including the abolition of NHS England and a directive for Integrated Care Boards (ICBs) to cut their running costs by 50% within six months.

This move is expected to lead to significant job losses and uncertainty across the VCSE sector.

Short Breaks Project Funding

Barnwood Trust, Gloucestershire County Council and Gloucestershire VCSE Alliance have awarded four organisations two years of funding through our partnership to enhance Short Breaks provision in Gloucester, Tewkesbury, and North Cotswold. 

This initiative follows a "test and learn" approach, aiming to improve access to high-quality, inclusive short breaks for families of disabled children and young people across Gloucestershire, while also informing how services will be commissioned going forward.

Julie Reader-Sullivan and Cordell Ray (MBE)

Earlier this month, we said goodbye to several of our longstanding trustees. Emma Griffiths, Jenny Hopkins, Ali McGuckin, and Cordell Ray MBE have now retired from our Board, having completed their second three-year term of office.

Our trustees and staff team would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to Emma, Jenny, Ali and Cordell and thank them sincerely for all they have done for our organisation during their many years of service. Their hard work, knowledge, dedication and guidance has been pivotal in enabling Gloucestershire VCSE Alliance becoming the organisation that it is today.
