Find out about our anti-racist action plan developed with staff working in children's services.
In children’s social work we prioritise the work we need to do to achieve this.
We've developed an anti-racist action plan with our staff and created a new and innovative permanent post for an Anti-Racist Lead Practitioner.
‘Thank you for leading the anti-racist group discussions. I have found them so invaluable for my development both on a professional and personal level’.
We have created a whole system of relationship-based social work with children and families.
This means that social workers feel safe and supported and can build relationships with families and use these relationships to help create change. A key part of this model is challenging discrimination and racism. The model is making a difference for our social workers, their practice, and the families that we serve.
