Great to finally talk about my thesis research and share some of the findings beyond the classroom today. Fantastic, friendly and supportive conference as always, and lots to think about and reflect on for the journey back north. #juswac2024
Well, that's a wrap on #ECSWR2024 What an incredibly experience it has been. So much learning, sharing, thinking, and making connections over mutual interests. Day two included interest in our Buddying scheme from many more European countries, and Oman, USA and Australia!
There has been lots of interest in our poster today! The impact of our BA Buddy scheme is now spreading across Europe to Germany, Sweden, Finland, the Netherlands as well as within the UK. @DrDianeSimpson@kristyregan13@PhilipW53150514@SunderlandUniSW
Today we welcomed some of our applicants onto campus and used @lemnsissay's fantastic 'My Name is Why' to help them reflect on why they wanted to become social workers. Great group, brilliant session. We can't wait to welcome them all back in September. @SunderlandUniSW
It's been wonderful to have our hard work and dedication to our students recognised this week. I couldn't be prouder to be part of such an incredible team 👏 What a way to end the semester!
@SoboAllen @ArianeCritchley Interesting! I fell down a discression rabbit hole for a while but it was moving away from my questions really. No, father's didn't come up but the focus was more on the social workers themselves in the work. It would be good to have a chat about it all some time
My thesis on the experiences of social workers involved in pre-birth assessment work is now available online. There is a real sense of vulnerability in sharing it in it's raw form. Alas, what's the point of research if noone reads it! https://t.co/fLdM5HgxGV
Whilst in the middle of nowhere, in a winery in Albania, I got the news that I am officially Dr Bleasby! What a place to celebrate four and a half years of hard work finally paying off.
Today we had some of our final year students back onto campus for one last time. I can't believe that it has been three years already as it feels like you all started just yesterday. Well done, BA Social Work class of 2023! @SunderlandUniSW
