Abstract

Thousands of mutual aid groups have sprung up in the UK since 2020, but what do we know about them, and can they sustain volunteering after the pandemic is over? Anne Power and Ellie Benton (LSE) suggest ways that local government could support the groups, and warn that they must not become a replacement for public services.
