The conference brought together representatives of local authorities, national organizations, government departments, and social welfare agencies to consider the policies and administration of public social services. It underlines the idea that welfare services must go beyond providing financial support and work towards helping individuals become self-reliant. Participants in the conference discussed the scope of voluntary organizations and their role in the development of health and general welfare services. The book highlights the need for voluntary and statutory social service organizations to work together, sharing resources and ideas. At a time of great social distress and change, the author stresses the need for the state to support a range of social services and the voluntary sector in order to help individuals and communities. Discussions in this book are relevant to all those with an interest in the history of social welfare, the role of the state, the voluntary sector, and philanthropy in the development of modern social services.
