Community capacity

Plain English definition

Think Local Act Personal

What people in local communities are able to do to help and support each other. It involves making use of resources that already exist - such as neighbourhood groups and befriending schemes - and developing new ones. It helps people find ways of meeting their own needs, and the needs of others, in the place where they live.
