Bridging
the Policy Gap
From National Policy to Local Implementation
Welcome. The project work for Bridging
the Policy Gap is now complete; the organisers would to thank
the hundreds of people who participated in the project from
Glasgow, Swansea, Newham and many places in between.
Bridging the Policy Gap was a 12-month project
funded to increase awareness of European action in the field
of social inclusion and social protection. The project put
participation at the heart of the awareness raising work;
achieving increased awareness through actively engaging
a cross-section of people and organisations in the development
and evaluation of policies designed to tackle poverty and
social exclusion at the local level.
You can find out more about the project on
these pages as well as download the four reports that were
written and published as a result of the project. The reports
include recommendations and key findings in the areas of:
Participation in policy making, helping lone parents overcome
the barriers that may be preventing their return to work,
Children’s play and helping disabled people undertake
employment and careers.
