  A simple text, supported by diagrams and colour photographs, explains what voluntary groups are, their responsibilities and role within society. It looks at their historical background as well as their present day structure and means of finance. It explores the relationship between voluntary groups and other institutions of society, e.g. Parliament, central and local government, the media, the EU. It also asks how effective these groups are and if they are ever corrupt or irresponsible.
