| 2011 | June 15 | Low-income neighbourhoods in Britain: The gap between policy ideas and residents’ realities | This report examines some of the principles and

place, poverty and welfare introduced by the
Coalition Government, and considers how they
connect with the perceptions of residents. The report is based on the fi ndings of a three-year research project, Living through Change in Challenging Neighbourhoods, which was carried out in six low-income neighbourhoods across Britain. The report uncovers how some of the assumptions implicit in the Government’s policies are at odds with the attitudes and experiences of residents. It then considers the implications of the research for current and future policies towards work, welfare and place. | Joseph Rowntree Foundation | 310kb |
