@socialworkO I think social workers should work with people, not cases

[IainSW @SwIain]

@Ant_Vaughan That position also puts a lot of pressure on someone who may already be unhappy with who they are which can lead to them feeling more stressed or not resilient. Also, what about systemic and structural barriers, institutional racism, sexism, patriarchy, wealth inequality?

[IainSW @SwIain]

Thank you @GeorgeTakei just been to seen @allegiancebway and it was absolutely beautiful and such an important story that is never told. The acting, the music, the staging, everything #thankyou

[IainSW @SwIain]

Started working in a Children In Care team for the first time. Any good suggestions for articles, books, podcasts? #EveryChildInCareMatters #socialwork

[Ben Ashcroft @AshcroftBen]

I know it's Friday night but please can I ask you to spare a few seconds to help us improve awareness and reach a wider audience?

Please RT or type a tweet saying -

Every Child IN Care Matters.

Goodbyes are never easy but after leading a fantastic Safeguarding team in @lb_southwark it’s time for new adventures working with cared for children by the sea in @SouthendCityC #socialwork

[Rebekah Pierre @RebekahPierre92]

For the @guardian, I wrote about the government's stingy response to the care review.

Since when did 'love' become a euphemism for cheap? Children deserve so much better than this paltry offering.

Barry Keoghan was in foster care for seven years, staying in 13 different homes. He is 30 years old. He has been nominated for an Oscar for his role in The Banshees of Insherin. Go on Barry!!!

[IainSW @SwIain]

This is important.
We didn’t have it for so long and now they want to take it away. Visibility is important, taking this away hurts.
