On our visit to University of Malawi last year we completed some more interviews with students talking about what social work means to them. #wswd2025. You can listen to one of them on our YouTube channel. Interview with Charles - May 2024 youtu.be/i1abfuEW_sc?si=0ETA… via @YouTube

It's been an honour to spend time in Malawi working with social workers in practice education and leadership skills. I've recorded over 20 brief interviews over the last 10 years of visits and learned so much from these amazing people in the Warm Heart of Africa. Happy #WSWD2025

You can’t be in opposition for 14 years, criticising the Tories for accepting ‘gifts’, and certain privileges, then act surprised when the public call you out for doing the same thing. From Angela Rayner’s ‘But everybody does it’ excuse, to Starmer saying ‘It was the right thing to do’, Labour needs to sort their shit out ASAP, because as Honeymoon periods go, this one has been an absolute car crash.

Our latest article reveals how children in the UK are missing out on family care because councils are failing to consider overseas placements. Family members, no matter where they live, should always be considered before local authority care. communitycare.co.uk/2024/07/…
