Do you work with Muslim boys in Belfast / NI?
At Belfast Islamic Centre we are launching a new Muslim boys club for 11-16 year olds on Thursday 9th October, 7pm
A place for the boys to have fun while we also support their personal development and well-being.

جايسون، إيرلندي مسلم: "هناك حقيقة عن الإسلام يتجاهلها الناس أو يخافون من الاعتراف بها: الإسلام ليس دينًا يسير على مبدأ "افعل ما يُريحك" إنه يتطلب انضباطاً هائلاً والتزاما وتضحية... إيماننا يدعونا للابتعاد عن الكسل واللهو والإدمان".
Disappointing to see these new findings from @CommunityCare - shows how engrained this negative public perception belief is amongst social workers. Not surprising with it so consistently rammed down our throats by media/policy networks (without evidence).

Social workers, this is the MOST important thing for us to remember… 💛
Let us know if you agree!
What are the barriers to clear, empathic, and compassionate child protection services?
For me, taking a step back and looking at the bigger picture helps us to understand the ‘why’ of people’s behaviours.
As social workers we need to understand actions that we see as ‘risky’ or ‘problematic’.
Are these coping mechanisms? The result of trauma? Undiagnosed mental health issues? Important questions to consider so we can provide the right support 💛
Social workers, let’s share our knowledge and insights with other practitioners —
How do you ensure you practice with compassion and empathy
in situations of tension, disagreement or even in the face of abuse?
This is a challenge we all face in child safeguarding.

Seeing so many people deliberate about deleting their X account.
I understand it but I don’t agree.
Strong political views are part of the world we live in.
Stay here and continue to speak up and advocate for the things you believe in!
Even if it’s difficult or you face a lot of opposition. That’s when it’s most important surely.
What are your thoughts?
Social workers, need to a breather? 😅
