The new edition of this popular book has been substantially revised and provides a practical step-by-step guide to community profiling, invaluable for students and practitioners involved in community-based research.

It then looks at methods for collecting, storing and analyzing data, and ways of involving the community, concluding with a chapter on ensuring your profile has impact. This book is fully updated throughout and includes: a new chapter on links between community profiling, policy development and practice; a new chapter on selecting methods for data collection; bulleted key issues at the end of each chapter; case studies and boxed examples; further reading and a list of additional resources; a new appendix for those who want to undertake more complex research; and a new glossary."Community Profiling" is essential reading for anyone engaged in community profiling, social auditing, needs assessment or community consultation.Community workers and community practitioners across a range of disciplines including regeneration, neighborhood management, library services, housing, health, youth work and social care will find it especially useful.
