As part of Social Work England: Social Work Week (20-24 March 2023) - a programme of events from across the sector. The webinar examined how social workers write about children and young people. Care experienced adults report that reading their files can be hugely impactful for them. We discussed how language used when describing a child and their experiences can be interpreted at a later date.
