Patterns of social capital: does volunteering change social characteristics?
TSRC researchers have studied data from the 2005 and 2007 Citizenship Surveys to map the broad differences in levels of voluntary and social capital between 90 different types of place in England, characterised by their regional location and level of deprivation.
Andrew McCulloch, John Mohan and Peter Smith consider whether voluntarism can produce improved outcomes for individuals and communities in their new paper ‘Patterns of social capital: voluntary activity and area deprivation in England’.
