Evolving Communities worked with Gloucestershire County Council as part of an engagement project which aimed to understand the impact of a proposed closure of two care homes in Stroud.

Background to the work

Gloucestershire County Council were looking into the potential closure of two care homes in the Stroud District – Southfield House and Wyatt House.  The County Council acknowledged that any potential closure would have an impact on residents and their relatives/representatives.

What did we do?

They asked Evolving Communities to independently attend two engagement meetings to speak with residents and their relatives/representatives about the impact a potential closure may have on their health and wellbeing.

An independent engagement report was produced which was taken to Gloucestershire County Council cabinet on the 24th July 2019.
