The team

We have a team of 4 officers working within community engagement as part of the City Council’s community wellbeing team.

Emily Bolland – full time

Leanne Purnell –  full time

Bev Headman-Fearon – part time Tuesday-Thursday

Isobel Johnson – part time Wednesday-Friday

For the past 10 years this department has worked in a strengths-based way, following an Asset Based Community Development model, where we focus on what is strong, not wrong in communities.

We work with the local voluntary and community sector, partner agencies and residents to help make Gloucester a place where everyone can have a good life.

Each of our officers has an individual set of priorities but as a team we work together to enhance the wellbeing of the city.
