Social workers exist as there are aspects of our society that the rest of us do not want to deal with -they are our eyes, ears & judgement
Thank you to the Practice Educators and PECs from across Kirklees and Calderdale LAs for taking the time to introduce our students to your teams. Placement matching always goes much smoother with your help. This is what being in a Teaching Partnership is all about @inspiringswtp

We wanted to respond to the ongoing crisis in Ukraine, so called for donations from our University staff and Social Work/ Health & Social Care students. A huge thank you to everyone who so generously contributed. These are going to local charity Focus 4 Hope today to be sent on🇺🇦
A generous donation for Bradford Metropolitan Food Bank today from our first year Social Work and Health and Social Care students. They are meeting next week to discuss how they can continue to support local people and projects. Any ideas?

Well done to Emma, Karina, Brian, Salma & Vikki who were all nominated by social work students for a practice educator award. Very well deserved. #InspiringTPWSWD #WSWD2021
