community organisers survey results

Online only

In February 2012, Urban Forum carried out a survey looking at what community groups knew about community organising and the Community Organisers national programme being run by Locality, as well as the benefits and challenges that they thought that the programme may or will offer their local area. There were 152 respondents to the survey, reflecting the amount of attention paid to the Community Organisers programme in national media, especially when compared to the relatively low levels of coverage of other aspects of Big Society and Localism such as Community Rights.
