Weekly Social Work Links - Issue 72
9th April 2023
Introduction
Firstly, a Happy Easter/Ramadan Mubarak/Chag Pesach Sameach and Best Wishes for a Peaceful and Enjoyable Spring to those who may have celebrations this time of year.
Back again after a few weeks away so might need a bit of creaking back into gear but there’s been a lot going on.
Thanks to all subscribers, old and new - feel free to share with friends, colleagues, neighbours, family or drop a like.
I always welcome feedback via comments or at @vic15 on Twitter.
