We know face coverings are important but please remember 'selfishness' & 'stupidity' aren't the only reasons some are hesitant to wear them. They can cause severe distress, incl for many sexual violence survivors, & Govt guidance recognises this #ShowMeYourMask #BeKind

We are seeking examples of how child+family services are enabling f2f infant-birth parent contact under lockdown+social distance. A lot is not happening, raising concern re. parent-child relationship and just family court proceedings. Where are practical solutions being found?

In this book I argue that touch plays a central role in child protection work but it is often ignored, or seen as a problem. Palgrave have made the chapter free as part of thinking about what #SocialDistancing means for #socialwork & #ChildProtection #Covid19 #coronavirus
A chapter by @Harr_Ferguson & Jim Norton on the importance of touch when it comes to protecting children is currently freely available via publisher Macmillan International bit.ly/2WUkqiL
