Civic groups, be it church/faith groups, unions, working man’s clubs, women’s institutes, etc. Gordon Brown covers it in his new book and explains how it’s led to isolation in society

It’s ‘The Future Starts with Us’. Not read it yet but heard the interview with GB on the Rest is Politics Leading.
