The toolkit is set out into three sections. Section A provides the background and context for PB in the UK and includes chapters such as ‘what is participatory budgeting’, ‘the challenges of participatory budgeting’, and ‘the models of participatory budgeting’. Section B is the process matrices and case studies. Each stage in the process has a matrix to enable initiatives to chart their progress against best practice. The case studies provide real examples of how best practice can be achieved for each stage. Section C is the tools. The majority of the tools are either generic for any type of PB model or are focused on the small grants process.
