  • TURNING the TIDE Social Justice in Five Seaside Towns
    Breakthrough Britain II TURNING THE TIDE Social justice in five seaside towns August 2013 contents Contents About the Centre for Social Justice 2 Acknowledgements 3 Introduction 4 Case Study 1: Rhyl 7 Case Study 2: Margate 12 Case Study 3: Clacton-on-Sea 19 Case Study 4: Blackpool 24 Case Study 5: Great Yarmouth 29 Conclusion 33 Turning the Tide | Contents 1 About the Centre for Social Justice The Centre for Social Justice (CSJ) aims to put social justice at the heart of British politics. Our policy development is rooted in the wisdom of those working to tackle Britain’s deepest social problems and the experience of those whose lives have been affected by poverty. Our Working Groups are non-partisan, comprising prominent academics, practitioners and policy makers who have expertise in the relevant fields. We consult nationally and internationally, especially with charities and social enterprises, who are the champions of the welfare society. In addition to policy development, the CSJ has built an alliance of poverty fighting organisations that reverse social breakdown and transform communities. We believe that the surest way the Government can reverse social breakdown and poverty is to enable such individuals, communities and voluntary groups to help themselves. The CSJ was founded by Iain Duncan Smith in 2004, as the fulfilment of a promise made to Janice Dobbie, whose son had recently died from a drug overdose just after he was released from prison.
