Community Engagement Officer

The Veterans Inspiring People project aligns with the overall Active Plus aims as it will ultimately improve community cohesion as it places veterans and the wider community at the heart of its delivery. The project aims to engage with, and improve the lives of people in the Cornish community who are inactive and therefore at higher risk of social isolation, ill-health and poor wellbeing.

Wounded, injured and sick military veterans will act as inspirational role models within the community as they build confidence, increase resilience and promote inclusion for all, therefore improving the lives of local people, as well as their own.

The Community Engagement Officer will play a pivotal role within the project as they work with participants to reduce isolation, increase overall health and wellbeing and align the community with the community’s resources.
