Community spirit
Encyclopedia
Community spirit is a phrase used to describe local people working together for a mutually positive and sometimes pleasurable result. This could be apparent at a community fair, a school fete, or in more practical situations where a local is in need of help and the community rally round to provide appropriate support. Other events that create community spirit could include charitable events at the community or church hall, or even putting together a team of volunteers to blitz local streets and clear them of rubbish.

The measure of community spirit is subjective, but could be considered by looking at the level of achievement from deeds done by the community alongside the level of contentment of the locals.

Community spirit is associated with voluntary work, favours and gestures of good will by residents and local businesses. Local voluntary organisations such as Neighbourhood Watch or the Women's Institute often help create community spirit.
