What is meant by social exclusion?
Social exclusion is a term used to show how some individuals, groups or communities can be excluded from participating in activities due to access barriers. There are numerous examples – lack of disabled access, lack of basic learning skills, long-term health problems, physical isolation / transport issues in rural areas, financial problems, lack of crèches or other child-minding facilities…. the list goes on. The Community Regeneration department of CCC aims to try to address such issues to allow all to have access to the same services or facilities regardless of the reason for the inability to access such.
