Paul Spicker (1995) defined community as: ‘a group of people linked by common characteristics or culture; a group of people linked through social relationships, people living in a confined geographical area; people who share a set of common interests.’ Community Definition
George Hillary (1955) presented 94 definitions of Community. His viewpoint was: ‘at the core function and existence of community is PEOPLE. How people act and engage with one another defines both the type of community, how strong and how effective that community is.’ Community Definition
“Allowing individuals to contribute where their decisions are valued through life of community”. “Acceptance and access”. “Decisions, personal responsibility, supported participation, people, opportunity”. “Joining in”. “Being included in all areas of community life and living”.
