New resource on ‘people power’

There’s a new publication on neighbourhood involvement knocking
around, which has come out of discussions between various professional
community workers and led by Dr. Tony Gibson. The result is
“Streetwide, Worldwide, where people power begins”.  The group (listed
at the back of the guide) met together to consider the ways and means
that might become available as part of the response of everyday people
to the challenges we all know so well and in particular how to connect
with the vast majority of people who have stayed on the sidelines, who
are skeptical of those in ‘organisations’, because most of what they
attempt seems to begin and end in talk.  The guide will have an
official launch towards the end of this year or beginning of next and
will exist both as an electronic resource and with the hope that hard
copies will be available at a future point.

You can get a copy by emailing Tony on tony.gibson at blueyonder.co.uk
to whom you should also address comments and queries.
