Research in Practice Podcast
Susannah Bowyer, Assistant Director at Research in Practice in conversation with Prof. Kate Morris of the University of Sheffield, and Prof. Brid Featherstone of the University of Huddersfield.
In this podcast Brid and Kate talk about their powerful body of research and their radical vision for social work with children, young people and families around poverty, inequality and neglect.
Talking Points
• The strong association between a family’s socio-economic circumstances and the chances that children in those families will experience child abuse and neglect.
• Evidence from across the four nations of the UK that offer alternative approaches to working with families affected by poverty.
• The complex interactions between deprivation and ethnicity.
• How social work can engage with the community, and the co-production of approaches with people who have lived experiences.
• How senior managers can apply messages from this body of research in their work.
