Unveiling Insights: Beyond Essentials – Community Responses to the Cost-of-Living Crisis

The “Beyond Essentials: Community Responses to the Cost-of-Living Crisis” report is now available. Conducted by Rosie Cribb and Graham Davies, this new research examines how community organizations are responding to the Cost-of-Living Crisis amidst increasing pressures.

The report focuses on the impacts on community groups, their staff, and volunteers—a critical yet under-analysed aspect of the crisis. It underscores the essential role these organisations play, providing not only basic necessities like food and fuel but also assuming responsibilities once held by public sector bodies.
