new.basw.co.uk/about-basw/soc… Come join the @BASW_UK conference in Edinburgh Scotland on 18/19 June 2024. Excellent line up of speakers and contributors 😁🙌🏻 Should be a great opportunity to celebrate our profession! @ScotsSW @BASW_NI @BASW_Cymru #socialwork @iona_colvin @socworkscot
Kharkiv day 4. Met with reps of the trade union for disabled employees. Evening meal with Valentina's family & friends in their 16th floor flat in Nawcova. We toasted victory, resilience, courage, international friendship & solidarity over a feast of Ukrainian dishes. Great folk
@CFTUU Throughout today I have felt humbled by the resilience and bravery of these people. They don't understand Russia's invasion & are determined to resist it. They said I was brave for coming to visit - no - their stories need telling & solidarity needed more than ever 😔
@CFTUU 6. Later, with Street Culture volunteers we purchased £300 of toiletries & pet foods - from Crowdfunder raised in Scotland. After this Valery, its head, took me round the city to visit its provisions and store. Amazing community based work - the street stuff was cool & well used
1. Kharkiv day 3. Met amazing community activists from Street Culture who offer food & clothing aid to displaced persons. Also the nearby city farm which rescues animals from the war that in turn help recovering soldiers and traumatized children. Julia here just remarkable..
⚠️ This is your seven day warning! ⚠️ Applications to join the #RMAScot team as our new OLR Lead close at midnight this Sunday, 21 April. If you've got management experience and want to make a difference to public protection in Scotland, take a look: rma.scot/vacancy-olr-le… RT
This is the zoo just north of Kharkiv attacked by brave Russian soldiers in February 2022 with guns & weapons like those in the pic. 5 keepers died trying to save the animals. It's now being repopulated
This is an active air raid alert - 2nd one so far today - sirens went on some distance away but not for very long. for people here now this goes for normality as you can see from picture of people promenading in the park tonight. Hard to imagine this day in day out
This is North Saltvitka Kharkiv whose mile of residential flats took direct artillery fire from nearby Russians after the invasion. The middle pic shows the public library on the ground floor of one block. These people had done nothing to provoke such methods of 'liberation'.
Join the #SocialWork Policy Panel tmrw! All frontline workers, students & NQSWs welcome. Talk to colleagues, learn how policy affects day-to-day practice, & develop closer links between the work you do & the future of social work. Register here👉 buff.ly/41ZXZbj
Great meeting with Vasyl this afternoon; he coordinates the work of the LGBTQ organisation in Kharkiv "Spectrum" - personal support and temporary refuge shelter. He says the biggest problem for them is the war - and the fear for safety and marshall law that goes with it.
Kyiv's palatial railway station has a fantastic @UNICEF staffed family and play area - offering advice as well as recreation - for those whose family life disrupted by Russia's aggression, at a place of farewells as well as reunions. @socworkscot @ScotsSW
Early bird tickets for our conference - the only conference for leaders of social work in Scotland - run out at 5pm. Get yours: registerforevent.co.uk/swsannualconf2…

❤️👏👏👏
Today, @ScotParl passed the Children (Care and Justice) (Scotland) Bill, taking a significant step forward for Scotland to #KeepThePromise.
Pleased to see the change to the law which will (once commenced) finally stop the imprisonment of children in Scotland and extend the welfare based Children’s Hearing system to all children. Well done to everyone who has worked so hard to achieve these long overdue protections.
The result of the Stage 3 vote on the Children (Care and Justice) (Scotland) Bill is: ✅ Yes - 71 ❌ No - 49 The Bill is therefore passed. You can find out more online at ow.ly/B0um50RogTt

It’s more than five years since William Lindsay killed himself in Polmont at the age of 16. When this comes into force no child will ever be sent to Polmont again. It won’t bring back William, but it’s something. More power to all who made it happen.

The Children (Care and Justice) (Scotland) Bill has passed! This is an incredible step forward for children in conflict with the law in Scotland. Watch CYCJ Director @fifidyer give her reaction👇
Momentous time in Scotland especially to all the children & young people who have fought hard to ensure that children are treated as children who have the right to be respected & cared for. 👏 Respect to @YJVScotland young people & all @CYCJScotland who have paved the way

There is much heartbreak in the backstory to this Bill. Righting a wrong and putting a full stop on the use of prison for children. Implementation will take hard work and investment. This is a good start. More to do.
Today, @ScotParl passed the Children (Care and Justice) (Scotland) Bill, taking a significant step forward for Scotland to #KeepThePromise.
