The Community Participation Project is a joint project between the two north inner city community networks, ICON and the NWICN. The project has two part-time workers, and is funded by the North Inner City Drugs Task Force.
The aim of the Community Participation Project is to encourage and support local people to get involved in the actions and decision which affect their lives and their communities.
This support work had been taking place on an informal basis in the local projects working on the ground with little or no resources. The project initiated research into the level of participation by the local community and the research highlighted the lack of a structured approach when engaging with local volunteers. The “Good Practice Guide to Community Participation” emerged as a means by which to help organisations and local groups to involve local people more effectively.
