Social Work Links and Learning #154
26 January 2025
Introduction
Quick note to say I’ll be away next weekend so won’t be publishing on Sunday as usual. I may try to publish at a different time over the weekend but not entirely sure how feasible that will be so if I skip a week, that’s why and will be back as normal on the following Sunday. Wishing all a fruitful and peaceful week ahead. As always I welcome any comments/feedback/suggestions.
