Description - Introduction to the Voluntary Sector by Rodney Hedley
Over the last few years the complete restructuring of health and welfare provision has meant that there has been a re-evaluation of all sectors of this market. For the voluntary sector, it has mean increased responsibility and accountability and a re-examination of the management of these organisations - charity and fundraising has become big business'. But how can the voluntary sector respond to this pressure, who is running it and how should it be managed? In An Introduction to the Voluntary Sector the editors and contributors examine key features including its history, present position and its future; they analyse the challenges it faces and provide practical guidance and analysis of the current issues including its legal framework in the UK and EU, fundraising activites, management and accountability. An Introduction to the Voluntary Sector will be invaluable reading to all students and lecturers of social policy and organisational studies as well as to professional policy-makers and voluntary sector personnel. Justin Davis Smith is Head of Research and Information at the Volunteer Centre UK.
Colin Rochester is a consultant, researcher and writer as is Research Development Officer at the Centre for Voluntary Organisation at the London School of Economics. Rodney Hedley is Secretary to the Trustees of the Hilden Charitable Trust.
