Description
Community Groups in Context: Local Activities and Actions offers a new understanding of community action 'below the radar'. This collection of papers develops theoretical and empirically grounded knowledge of self-organised community activity, focusing on informal, unregistered groups that are the largest part of the voluntary sector.
The book provides valuable insights into these often-overlooked groups, shedding light on their role in addressing social problems. It is an essential read for academics, activists and policy makers seeking to understand this aspect of the UK voluntary sector.
