The document discusses the Conservative party's "Big Society" policy initiative under the Cameron government in the UK. It provides context on previous Labour policies related to the third sector. It then examines the Big Society approach, noting it was intended to reduce the role of the state while increasing civic engagement and local voluntary organizations. However, cuts to funding and support for third sector organizations contradicted this goal. The policy also differed in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland versus England.

Presentatie henk cornelissen
The document summarizes the key problems facing British society as identified by Phillip Blond: the concentration of wealth among a small percentage of people has eroded social capital and civic engagement. Blond proposes the "Big Society" approach to address these issues through greater local democracy, community empowerment, and social enterprise. Development trusts and community organizations play an important role in Blond's vision by empowering local neighborhoods and fostering social and economic development from the bottom up.
Pete Alcock, Cumberland Lodge June 2011
This document summarizes predictions for the third sector in the UK in 2015. It predicts that the Big Society agenda will not be fully realized due to waning government commitment. Limited success is expected for new models of public service delivery, philanthropy, and investment. Devolved administrations will resist increased marketization, and public funding dependency in the sector will remain high due to slowed income growth and increased bifurcation from marketization of public services under public expenditure cuts. The third sector is predicted to remain diverse and strong despite facing challenges similar to previous governments.
Urbanforum
The document summarizes the effects of public spending cuts and the UK government's "Big Society" initiative on the voluntary and community sector (VCS). Key points include:
- £81 billion in public spending cuts over 4 years will result in 500,000 job losses and cuts to welfare and local services.
- The "Big Society" aims to decentralize power and give communities more control over services, but critics argue it does not address fairness or equality.
- The VCS faces challenges but also opportunities, including a £470 million transition fund to support community organizations in replacing lost services.
Third way
This document discusses the evolution of the Labour Party in Britain from 1994 onward under Tony Blair's leadership. It notes that Blair rejected traditional socialist policies and embraced concepts associated with the Third Way like pragmatism, communitarianism, and meritocracy. While Labour adopted some neoliberal policies under Blair like workfare programs and increasing private financing, it also maintained some socialist policies like the minimum wage. The document debates whether Labour remained a socialist party and examines some of Gordon Brown and Ed Miliband's policies that represented a shift back toward traditional labour values around redistribution, regulation, and public services.
InnovationeXchange
The document discusses the Innovation Exchange, which aims to connect innovators in the third sector with commissioners and social investors to support social innovation ideas. It does this by bringing these groups together around key social challenges at Festival of Ideas events. At these events, third sector innovators can get feedback on their ideas and the best innovations receive funding from the Innovation Exchange Fund. The goal is to make social innovation a sustainable activity for the third sector by enabling connections, collaboration and risk-sharing between innovators, commissioners and investors.
Paddy's presentation
- The document provides an update on the UK government's "Big Society" initiative to disperse power more widely and empower communities.
- Key aspects of Big Society include decentralization, community empowerment, and philanthropic action. Legislation is underway to enable these aspects.
- Progress includes laws being passed to give local authorities more powers, as well as reforms to public services. However, some initiatives have faced opposition and inconsistencies remain in the government's approach.
W7 making the most of an older population - chair's remark
Local governments face financial challenges that require new approaches to serving an aging population. Two local councils, Manchester and Leeds, are developing innovative programs. Manchester's "Valuing Older People" work systematically involves older adults. Leeds' "Neighbourhood Networks" empower older community members to build local capacity from the bottom up. These examples could provide models for harnessing older adults' contributions to address the needs of an aging society.

Workshop 4 Cohesion And Integration
Settled communities face challenges from changing population dynamics and new migration patterns. Predominantly white rural communities and areas with longstanding diversity are experiencing aging populations and increased diversity. Since 2004, rapid growth in migration from EU Accession states like Poland has increased visibility and tensions. Challenges include deprivation, underachievement, isolation, lack of understanding about new populations, myths, fear, and prejudice. Opportunities for local authorities include engaging settled communities early, communicating benefits of diversity, and promoting integration through shared activities, citizenship education, and valuing all communities' contributions.
The Case for UBI

The United States Catholic Bishops wrote a pastoral letter in 1986 addressing economic justice and inequality. It advocated for policies that promote the common good, protect the right to gainful employment, and ensure tax systems raise enough revenue from wealthier citizens to help the poor. The bishops called on governments and societies to provide assistance, training, and education to help the unemployed and disadvantaged become self-sufficient through work.

Future Rural Public Services: Can The DIY Approach Work? [Kate Stephen & Cli...University of the Highlands and Islands
During the current culture of austerity measures where public sector is facing unprecedented levels of cuts, there is a sense of foreboding about the impact on rural services. Policy rhetoric is that individuals, families and communities have to do more and the state will do less. Kate Stephen will give her perspective on the potential implications for rural communities in Highland and will describe what the DIY approach can look like, warts and all. Clive Sheppard will draw on his experience to describe the role social enterprise can play in rural service delivery.
Kate Stephen has been Project Manager on the O4O: Older People for Older People project and has experience working and volunteering in community development and community care.
Clive Sheppard has extensive experience in the social enterprise sector as a mentor, teacher and practitioner. He sits on the Board of Community Care Assynt which was supported by the O4O project.Scholarly Articles for Hypnotherapy and Smoking Study
The document summarizes several scholarly articles that study the effectiveness of hypnotherapy for smoking cessation. The articles found that hypnotherapy success rates for quitting smoking ranged from 81-90.6% immediately after treatment, and were still effective with rates of 48-87% after longer term follow ups of 6 months to 2 years. Hypnosis was also found to be more effective than other methods like willpower alone, nicotine patches, or drug interventions for helping people stop smoking. The largest study to date concluded that hypnosis was 3 times as effective as nicotine patches and 15 times as effective as willpower alone in treating smoking addiction.

- The Big Society was a core theme of the Conservative Party leading up to the 2010 UK election but confusion arose around its meaning on the campaign trail.
- After forming a coalition government, the Conservatives continued promoting the Big Society agenda through the new Office for Civil Society and related policy papers, but significant cuts to public and third sector funding posed challenges to its vision.
- While some policies built on existing trends around public services, community organizing, and social enterprises, analysts debate whether the Big Society represents a truly new direction or is more rhetoric than substance given tensions between its decentralized, bottom-up ideals and top-down policy implementation amid austerity cuts.
Bridging the Policy Gap
The document discusses the challenges facing UK energy policy regarding achieving a low carbon, secure, and affordable energy system. It argues that the UK faces an impending energy capacity crunch due to aging infrastructure and a lack of long-term planning. It also discusses the need to tackle climate change through ambitious carbon reduction targets while ensuring energy security and affordable costs. The document proposes that Labour should support more ambitious carbon reduction targets set by an independent committee. It also proposes that government subsidies and guarantees for new energy infrastructure be reciprocated with equity stakes in the projects.
Still below the radar angus mc cabe
1. The document discusses research into community groups operating "below the radar" without formal registration or large budgets. These groups have received little research attention despite their grassroots activities.
2. It defines "below the radar" groups as those without charity registration and budgets under £10,000-£35,000 that are outside of local directories and funding radars. The research aims to map and understand these understudied community groups.
3. The research will explore how policy changes like the "Big Society" agenda have impacted different types of below the radar groups, finding early indications of loss of support for some wellbeing groups.
Not for profits how do we respond to the cuts
The speaker discusses the impact of funding cuts on the local voluntary sector in the UK. Recent data shows that medium-sized voluntary organizations with incomes around £300,000 have been hit hardest by the recession, with 49% reporting significant impacts. Cuts to public funding are also negatively impacting many local organizations. However, the new UK government's "Big Society" program presents some opportunities to increase social action and community involvement. The speaker urges leaders in the voluntary sector to make use of opportunities under this program while also responding strategically to funding challenges.
Social enterprise policy in an international context
The document discusses social enterprise development in different welfare regimes. It uses Esping-Andersen's three worlds of welfare capitalism and analyzes the development of social enterprises in the US, UK, Italy, and Sweden using the PRAMS framework of problems, resources, agents, market niches, and scale/scope. The key findings are that different countries developed social enterprises differently depending on their pre-existing welfare systems and reforms, but they commonly emerged to address issues like unemployment and budget deficits.
Big Society One Year On - Big Society & Localism
The document discusses the Big Society initiative in the UK and provides details about its goals and progress. Specifically, it outlines the three core strands of promoting social action, encouraging public services, and empowering communities. It also lists some examples of programs and policies that have been implemented to achieve the goals of decentralization and increasing local control through the Big Society framework.

This document introduces a series of essays on the future of public services in the UK. It was commissioned as a partnership between the 2020 Public Services Commission and the Economic and Social Research Council. The series explores two broad themes: future relationships between citizens, state and society, and the future delivery of public services. It aims to contribute to the national debate on public services and provide a rigorous evidence base for the Commission's vision of priorities and challenges facing public services in 2020.
Collaboration and partnership working in the downturn
The document discusses how partnership and collaboration in the public sector has become increasingly important over the last 20 years but faces new challenges due to budget cuts. It argues that despite rhetoric around multi-agency working, partnerships are often passive and instrumental. However, the economic downturn could provide new opportunities for meaningful collaboration if public leaders emphasize cooperative values. The rest of the paper reflects on lessons from New Labour's regeneration programs and incorporating the voluntary sector, and argues for strengthening independent local networks to develop alternative frameworks to the dominant neoliberal agenda.
100713 GOSE Big Society presentation to Consortia Coordinators July 2010
What is this Big Society stuff all about? Is it a smokescreen for Government cuts or a game-changing attempt to change the way our communities are run?
Vicky Westhorp of GOSE provided an excellent summary of what it's all about at a Capacitybuilders meeting of the Coordinators of ChangeUp Consortia in the south east. In other words people who work in the voluntary and community sector at a local level.
This presentation covers a lot of the background as well as the latest news and announcements.
Please use the comments space below the presentation to ask questions or add your thoughts about what is being proposed. I've offered to help moderate a discussion via this page, and/or via the email forum for the Coordinators [contact me for details]

The Big Society discussion
The document discusses the concept of the "Big Society" proposed by the UK Conservative Party and how it may impact the voluntary sector. Key aspects of the Big Society include increased outsourcing of public services to private and voluntary organizations, greater involvement of local communities, and establishing funds and programs to support social enterprises and community groups. The voluntary sector may see opportunities to take on more outsourced services but also faces challenges around cuts to public funding and increased competition for scarce resources.

- Public sector procurement is changing significantly due to austerity measures and budget cuts across the UK public sector.
- Spending cuts of 11% are the deepest sustained cuts since the 1970s and will require new procurement strategies, more outsourcing, and greater private sector involvement in public services.
- Local governments face the toughest challenges with council tax freezes and below inflation increases, coupled with pay freezes potentially spreading to local government workers as well. New procurement models will need to focus on people, facilities, and contracts.

The document analyzes various sociological, technological, environmental, economic, political, legal and ethical factors affecting social enterprises in the UK. Some key points from the analysis include:
- Air pollution and climate change pose health and economic risks and may increase costs through new regulations.
- Technological changes create new opportunities but also risks of organizations being outpaced or communications becoming oversaturated.
- Recent cuts to public services like schools are increasing social pressures while also creating potential roles for social enterprises.
- Economic centralization in London risks a "brain drain" from other parts of the UK.

Brexit: Implications for the voluntary sector
This document analyzes the implications of Brexit for the voluntary sector in the UK. It finds that in the short term, Brexit will lead to uncertainty as the government delays major decisions until negotiations are further along. This may cause funding and policy paralysis. In the long term, Brexit could reduce EU funding and public spending on services. It may also exacerbate social tensions and divisions in communities. The voluntary sector has an important role to play in bringing people together and ensuring vulnerable voices are heard during the Brexit process.
ExecutiveSummaryStrategyCivicEconomy.05.11.14
This document outlines Portugal's strategy to transform social spending into investments that drive economic growth through civic entrepreneurship and social innovation. It proposes establishing four pillars: 1) a knowledge cluster for research and workforce training on social innovation, 2) a financial cluster of impact funds and a federated bank to invest citizens' savings, 3) a capacity accelerator cluster to help transition existing social services and tackle societal issues, and 4) a civic movement platform and network of cities to organize these clusters locally. The goal is to build an ecosystem across Portugal's 159 cities that empowers social innovators and entrepreneurs to create social and economic value through the delivery of public services.
Burgerschapslezing 2011: Presentatie Phillip Blond
The document discusses the concept of the "Big Society" proposed by Phillip Blond which aims to increase civic participation, social cohesion, and distribute power and assets more widely in the UK. It notes decreasing levels of civic engagement and social trust in the UK compared to other European countries like the Netherlands. The Big Society seeks to address these issues through encouraging social enterprises, asset ownership, community empowerment, and greater participation in public services. While the Netherlands scores higher on many social metrics, it still faces its own social and ethnic divides.

This document discusses rural social enterprises and community organizing. It defines rural social enterprise as a social enterprise located in or primarily benefiting rural areas. It presents the Plunkett approach to community organizing, which involves inspiring communities that cooperation can help solve problems, developing social enterprises as a team activity, and helping communities learn from each other. The goal is to increase the number of rural social enterprises that are open and trading by making the process quicker, simpler and easier.Community organising in England - what are we talking about?

Community organising in England - what are we talking about? (Lydia Rye, Nott...Third Sector Research Centre
Community organizing has a long history dating back to faith, education, and labor organizing in the 1930s led by Saul Alinsky. In the UK, community organizing grew through organizations like Citizens Organising Foundation and Citizens UK. Community organizing builds relational power between groups and individuals to enact change for the common good, using either broad-based or micro organizing. Examples show that community organizing in Nottingham has achieved policy changes like installing CCTV in cabs, increasing police monitoring of stop and search, and securing living wages from several councils and employers. While community organizing is growing in popularity in the UK, challenges include securing sustainable funding and staffing as well as developing organizing skills. Future opportunities include greater impact, leadership development, and institutionalRural Community Organising in England (James Derounian)
This document discusses rural community organizing in England. It notes that faith-based organizations have historically supported community organizing efforts in several English cities. It also finds that about 13% of community organizing groups in England focus on or include rural areas in their activities and membership. The document analyzes findings from interviews with over 20 stakeholders involved in or supporting community organizing and community development. It discusses links between urban and rural community organizing efforts and ways the two fields of community organizing and community development can learn from and reinforce one another, especially in pursuing community-led action.

Experiential learning through seeing, doing, and peer-to-peer learning are key ways that people learn in community groups. However, there are challenges to community learning, including an emphasis on individualized and vocational learning over collective learning. Additionally, the ability to effectively share knowledge between peers, a lack of learning opportunities, and complexity in political systems can hamper community learning. Personal challenges also exist in transitioning from learning to taking action outside of state agendas.
Supporting Community Action (Burkett) - FCDL Workshop
The document discusses lessons from community development in Australia. It notes the history and context of community development practice in Australia, which differs from other places due to factors like vast distances and urban/rural differences. It introduces the concept of an "ecology of organizing" involving social service organizations, community organizations, and people's organizations all playing different but interconnected roles. An example of addressing financial exclusion illustrates this. Key lessons highlighted include people's organizations being strongest when building from existing relationships and identifying community strengths and assets from the start. While important, people's organizations also need connections to larger organizations and systems to create real change and pathways out of disadvantage.

This document summarizes two research projects on refugee integration and social networks. The first project analyzed data on 5,600 refugees in the UK from 2005-2008 to understand their integration priorities and social networks. The second project examined links between social networks, ethnicity, and poverty through interviews in Birmingham, Liverpool, and Cumbria. Key findings included the importance of family, friends, and community groups for support. Recommendations focused on improving language access, developing diverse networks, and addressing barriers like discrimination.Decoupling the state and the third sector, rob macmillan
1. The document discusses the Big Society policy in the UK and its implications for the relationship between the third sector and the state.
2. It analyzes the Big Society using theories of spontaneous order from Friedrich Hayek, suggesting that the third sector could be seen as a spontaneous order that is now decoupling from the state.
3. This decoupling or "great unsettlement" of the relationship signals a recasting of how the sector and state interact, with the state taking a less dominant role and the sector gaining more independence.

The document discusses the evolution of approaches to public governance from public administration to new public management and now to new public governance (NPG). It outlines some key challenges of delivering public services under NPG including adopting a public service-dominant logic focused on service systems and co-production rather than products, inter-organizational relationships, and policy dominance. The document also discusses implications of NPG for innovation, including focusing on user needs and experience, collaborative innovation, and understanding innovation as socially constructed within social systems.Processes of innovation in public services se spin-outs, fergus lyon ian vi...

Isomorphism in the work programme, james rees, tsrc seminar 19 june 2013Third Sector Research Centre
This document summarizes research exploring isomorphic pressures that have driven convergence in the approach and delivery of employment services, specifically within the UK Work Programme. The research found evidence of institutional isomorphism across organizations in this policy field. Coercive pressures from the financial model and prime contractor management practices led to standardized, generic models of service delivery. Mimetic pressures also contributed to imitation and standardization as organizations responded to uncertainty and risk. While there was some resistance from mission-driven organizations, on the whole the research indicates convergence and isomorphism within this organizational field as defined by the structure of the Work Programme model.Managing the Knowledge Exchange Process, Razia Shariff & Naomi Landau, IKT 2013
Managing the Knowledge Exchange Process, Razia Shariff & Naomi Landau, IKT 2013Third Sector Research Centre
The document discusses knowledge exchange and its impact through three case studies conducted by the Third Sector Research Centre (TSRC). TSRC conducts research on voluntary, community, and social enterprise sectors. It aims to maximize research impact through a two-way knowledge exchange process involving stakeholders. The document presents a knowledge exchange impact matrix showing different levels of stakeholder involvement and dissemination strategies. It also identifies variables to consider like existing networks, policy appetite, and tailoring approaches to research type. Reflections note understanding research goals, researchers' engagement tendencies, and the current context are important for effective knowledge exchange. Relational activities and co-production throughout the research process are key to generating impact.A compartive understanding of the commercialisation of the third sector, simo...

This document summarizes research on the commercialization of the nonprofit sector in England/Wales and the United States. The research finds that:
1) Commercial revenue partially replaces donations as a source of revenue for nonprofits in both countries.
2) Commercial and donation revenue are interdependent, with an increase in one associated with a decrease in the other.
3) Commercial revenue crowds out donations, though this effect was only measured in the US. The degree of crowd-out varies between fields.The third sector in unsettled times, rob macmillan and rebecca taylor, sra se...

This document summarizes findings from a qualitative longitudinal study of third sector organizations in the UK. It discusses two case studies of villages, "Sycamore" and "Larch", to illustrate changes in grassroots community groups. In Sycamore, an affluent village, community groups have faced conflicts over issues but have continued with support from residents. In Larch, a formerly mining village, community groups have struggled after the end of regeneration funding, showing how historical layers of investment influence present communities. The study examines continuity and change for organizations in uncertain political and economic times.More from Third Sector Research Centre (20)
