As part of our work on communities, the Young Foundation has recently launched a Community Action Toolkit. Whilst much is already known about how to successfully empower communities, this community action toolkit brings together knowledge, practical tools and stories about community empowerment for organisations who want to shift power and influence to local people and for communities that want to take up those opportunities. It is based on five years work the Young Foundation has undertaken with communities, local groups, councillors, local authorities, housing associations, public agencies and central government.
