Stable homes, built on air?

On 2 February the Government launched its strategy for children's social care reform in England—Stable Homes, Built on Love.  In this episode we we look at what the Strategy means for children and young people in care, those who care for them and for social workers working in children’s services. To discuss the strategy, host, Andy McClenaghan is joined by social workers Bekah Pierre and Joe Hanley—Bekah is a care experienced adult and BASW England Professional Officer, and Joe is a lecturer with the Open University and a member of the BASW Policy, Ethics and Human Rights Committee—and Sam Turner, Head of Policy and Public Affairs at the charity Kinship. To read the Government’s strategy, click here. To visit BASW’s review of children’s social care web hub, which includes BASW’s response to the publication of the strategy click here.  Hosted on Acast.
