The Review Process in Social Work
I have always thought that we as a society we should look into the role of the review process in social work. To explain briefly, when a care package is agreed for a service user, there is expected to be a review of that package very shortly afterwards. The review is carried out with the social worker, the service user, the carer/care organisation and any other interested party. This is to enable inevitable issues to be highlighted and improvemen…
Hidden Voices

Pooley and Taylor's edited book aims to provide 'a history of childhood and welfare in Britain through the eyes of children'.The book takes as starting point the challenging of the prevailing narrative within historical accounts of welfare that the experiences of children and young people were passively experienced by them.Contrastingly, the book's central thesis is that children and young people's agency has been integral to the making, interpre…
Reflections on Making Co-production Work
This article explores the key areas by which an academic book was co-produced with people from diverse backgrounds and lived experiences (Sealey et al., 2022). Co-production is often now presented as a common-sense shift to delivering public services (Paget, 2014; Durose et al., 2017), with a distinct trend towards co-production in the UK in recent decades (Pieroudis et al., 2019). The book referred to was explicitly written with co-production at…

The focus on the lived experiences is to detail the real-life impact that attending special schools can have on individuals. The accounts highlight that whilst all the individuals had positive experiences from attending special schools, a recurring negative theme f…
Politics for Social Workers
Pimpare’s book aims to provide a toolkit for social work students, instructors and practitioners to effect change in a very broad sense. The stated aim of the book is 2-fold: to provide ‘a concise, accessible guide to how politics and policy making really work in America—and what social workers can do to help their clients and communities’. Pimpare’s broad focus on change relates not only to individual practice, but also to the wider political sy…

For example, it highlights the fact that the changes in policy have had some negative impacts on the ability of transnational families to ha…
Social exclusion
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to rationalise the continued conceptual utility of social exclusion, and in so doing addresses the prevailing question of what to do with it. This is relevant from social exclusion’s declining relevance in contemporary UK social policy and academia, where its consideration as a concept to explain disadvantage is being usurped by other concepts, both old and new. Design/methodology/approach – The paper analys…
