Happy World Social Work Day! A day to join with others and think about the work that we do. This coming together is perhaps more important this year than ever. #WSWD2021

[Patrick Boyd @patrickboydcm]

Happy #WorldSocialWorkDay to all of my social work friends and colleagues. I’m proud of the values we hold as social workers. I’m proud of what and who our profession represents. I’m proud to be a social worker - I am because we are. @BISWG @BASW_UK @SocialWorkEng

[Oxford Brookes Social Work Society @OBU_SWSociety]

Happy #WorldSocialWorkDay everyone! The theme this year is ‘Ubuntu’, meaning ‘I am because we are’. This is the idea that people can grow and change through caring for others and being interconnected with other people!☺️🌍🧩
