’...this study shows that the residents of communities can act together and in conjunction with official agencies in order to modify the effects of poverty. Above all it does convey the priceless commodity of hope, that change can come about and that, amongst the poorest and most over-burdened of parents, there are those willing to struggle for the kind of more equal society which will promote the best kind of family life.’ Bob Holman, Voluntary Neighbourhood Worker and Visiting Professor, University of Glasgow, UK
