@TonimayoSW This is awful news. Social worker attack and deaths rarely make headline news which frankly is scandalous. Child protection social work is a very difficult complex but sadly a thankless task with the media very quick to point the finger when there is a tragic death RIP Deirdre ❤️
@piersmorgan Tragic so many losing lives but we need to know true figures. It’s disrespectful to those losing lives in care homes etc to not report true figure and not acknowledging those risking their lives to support/care for them
@piersmorgan I enjoyed your interview with Tony Blair. Very interested in what he had to say and thought he spoke a lot of sense. The Government should be surrounding themselves with people with appropriate skills sets and listening to say. Thank you for all your reporting.
@Richard25666541 @la_greeno @IDickson258@nesta_uk @volunteering_uk Looks great doesn’t it? Would be good to adapt. Maybe speak to our PSW and perhaps invite a speaker to kind of our Social Work Conferences
@diaz_clive @Richard25666541 @whatworksCSC @FrontlineSW I think it’s important academics experience frontline social work periodically to retain an understanding of the pressures experienced by social workers. I’m often told by NQSWs they didn’t feel prepared for the realities of practice
@Richard25666541 @diaz_clive @whatworksCSC @FrontlineSW Well said Richard. When we worked in the same team was amazing. Felt so supported and contained by managers and colleagues alike. Made a very difficult role somehow manageable. Unfortunately there probably plenty out there who didn’t have the support we had.
