It’s World Social Work Day, bringing people together to learn, connect, and raise awareness of the breadth, value and benefits of modern, progressive social work. To mark the day, I’m delighted to present this blog from Jak Savage MBE, social care consultant, employer of personal assistants and an invaluable voice of lived experience.

Let’s give social work with older people the recognition it deserves

Lyn Romeo and Gerry Nosowska, 27 November 2023 - Ageing, Care and support, Knowledge and skills, Research

I am delighted to host this blog from Gerry Nosowska, founder and Director of Effective Practice, which supported the Social Work with Older People research project. For too long, this vital area of practice has been largely unseen. Hopefully, as we build a stronger evidence base, more social workers will be deployed to work with older people and their carers.
