| Annotation | A growing band of social entrepreneurs, working at the grass roots of the welfare system in the space between the public and private sectors, is developing innovative answers to many of Britain's most pressing social problems. This report is based on case studies of five inspirational schemes that exemplify the potential of social entrepreneurs to create forms of active welfare which are both cheaper and more effective than the traditional services offered by the welfare state.
