The Promise in Rural Areas

About this event

This event has now expired

A lunchtime webinar exploring how we meet the promise’s vision for how we care in Scotland's rural areas.

In what ways is the promise shaping social work practice, work across services and our approaches to ensuring that the voices and experiences of children, young people and families are at the heart of all that we do? How can Plan 24-30, launched in June, help us in our journey towards the promise’s vision for the way in which Scotland cares by 2030? What needs adding to it, particularly in the context of work alongside children and families in rural settings? We’ll touch on all of these aspects during this gathering of the Rural Social Work Network.
