Going Local by John Pierson
Presenting information in a clear and accessible way, this core text helps to explain how social workers can develop valuable skills essential for neighbourhood work, engage with users and their locality, and contribute to strengthening local communities.
'A highly readable and easily understood account of the basics of community and neighbourhood practice, both conceptually and in terms of practice within specific fields (children and families, young people and anti-social behaviour, older people, and work with people of different faiths and ethnicity)' - British Journal of Social Work
