SASW are calling on the Scottish Government to offer social workers and social care workers a fair mileage rate, on a par with NHS colleagues, for travel while working.
Four social work students have each won £500 for their entries to SWU's WSWD 2021 Student Essay Assignment Competition, and two additional outstanding entries have been awarded prizes as well.
This guide aims to support social workers in Scotland to respond effectively to domestic abuse, with a particular focus on situations where children are involved.
BASW Cymru met with student social worker and BASW member Becky Salter to discuss her experiences so far and about being a BASW member.
Becky previously had a career in children’s services as a registered manager but decided that her passions and skillset would have more room to develop as a social worker. Becky is currently in her second year studying social work in the University of South Wales, Newport.
