| Annotation | This edition of this annual is a completely revised version. It draws together trends, facts and information from NCVO's research programme, plus the latest available data from government surveys, academic research and research by voluntary organisations. The Almanac is aimed at policy makers and practitioners with an interest in voluntary organisations and civil society. NCVO's working definition of a civil society is "that it is about people acting together, independently of the state or the market, to make a positive difference to their lives and/or the lives of others." The Almanac reports key trends and characteristics on a range of topics, including finance and funding, spending, workforce and employment, volunteering and beneficiaries. It focuses on how voluntary organisations at the heart of civil society have changed over the last decade, often comparing trends with the public and private sectors. The accompanying poster highlights some of the key findings from the Almanac. (KJ). |
