We are Scotlands Social Work students campaigning for a bursary.

[Colin Beattie MSP for Midlothian North @uartlach]

📈Bursaries for social work students will increase by almost 50% on average.

The Scottish Government is committed to supporting the skilled future social care workforce.

[Social Workers Union @SWU_UK]

The @SWstudentsunite campaign, backed by SWU & @ScotsSW, is about 2 basic principles: fair compensation for doing frontline work in the public sector and students on social work courses being treated like their peers on nursing & paramedic degrees: https://t.co/5I7ZUvmKAH

Congratulations to One Deal for Social Work surpassing 1000 signatures!

Was delighted to read this review of Insiders Outsiders which is such an important book. All the hidden narrative series shows the experiences of social workers in what is supposedly an anti oppressive profession!https://t.co/eRWcrJ9h7C

Social work employers are invited to take the #NeurodiversityPledge!

In the @ND_SWgroup's video series for this campaign, neurodivergent social worker Max Walker discusses how Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) informs his practice as a social worker: https://t.co/sB9aGwYFay

[SWstudentsunite @SWstudentsunite]

coming soon, for employers / educators of social work. throughout your team will be people with neuro diverse brain types. This will influence their work and their learning...influence, not hinder. Have you considered how you will support them to be the absolute best?

[Social Workers Union @SWU_UK]

Employers of social workers will soon be able to sign up to a new pledge to celebrate neurodiversity in the profession. Find out from Deb Solomon, a social worker from Derbyshire, about what will be in the pledge. #NeurodiversityCelebrationWeek

Today is world social work day. 4 years ago, we all started to work from home and my whole working world changed. Today and tomorrow I'm with social workers in Cornwall face to face. I am so looking forward to it. Enjoy the day. It's a great day to reflect and revisit our core.

The campaign team are still here. We are still working with the Scottish Government to try and implement Bursaries for social work students while their on placements. We haven't forgotten you and hopefully we will have more news soon.
