Description :
The specific focus is on the lived experience of voluntary sector care providers from the perspective of non-profit organisations, community groups and families as well as elderly residents of rural communities in Canada and New Zealand. Through resistance voluntary organisations and volunteers are seen to be engaging most intensely with the challenge of ageing in place within evolving spaces of care.
