The Civic Problem
Civic engagement has decreased
•Only 31% of Britons now provide nearly 90% of all volunteer hours Source: Third Sector Research Centre (2010)
•Netherlands, high concentrations of low income households = lower volunteering, voter turnout and contacts with relatives Source: Schmeets & te Riele (Jan 2010)

The Power Problem
Power has pooled in the state
•Nearly three out of four Britons agree that “the state intervenes too much”

The Diagnosis
Problems with the ‘right’ and ‘left’
•Both welfarism and the ‘monopolised market’ have encouraged bureaucracy and asset concentration
•The state and the market have squeezed out the ‘civic middle’, stripping it of capital and capacity

For public authorities
• Define budgets not by services or silos but by areas and by outcome
• Explore social finance models – move beyond social impact bonds for prisoners – to wider policy possibilities
• What scope for the council to be a bridge for funding current action from future savings?

The new civic agenda
• Economic – self and community build – platform for mass bottom up enterprise
• Social – associate to create capital and skills• Civic – begin where people are - foster
relationships and fraternity• Power – change governance – go bottom up

Whilst all trusts are different, they typically:• Are small with income of between £100k and £500k• Focus on very specific neighbourhoods of up to
5,000 people• Own an asset or have use of a building or property• Are primarily led and driven by up to 3 or 4
individuals, even though boards may be much bigger
• Are successful in overcoming ongoing income and other challenges

De verschillen met Nederland• Community (wijk) bepaald door bewoners niet
door geografie• Bewoners hebben meerderheid in bestuur• Focus op wijkeconomie, niet op welzijn• In bezit van eigen vermogen/vastgoed en daardoor
mogelijkheid om inkomsten te verwerven• Door eigen inkomsten niet alleen afhankelijk van
subsidie• Professionals worden ingehuurd en werken letterlijk in
dienst van
