This episode starts by announcing which two of our newsletter subscribers are the first winners of a Madlug bag and some podcast merchandise. Hannah and Matt are then joined by Isabelle Trowler, Chief Social Worker for Children and Families. The episode explores Isabelle’s role as Chief Social Worker, and social work as a political profession. Isabelle shares learning from Pathfinders and how this will support Local Authorities to rethink and redesign services, with a particular focus on Multi Agency Child Protection Teams and the interface with Family Help. Conversations explore the benefits, challenges, dilemmas and tensions of lead practitioners in the Family Help space who are not social work qualified, and how multi agency teams in child protection can support better decision making and enhance practice with children and families. Isabelle then shares her thoughts around progression routes for social workers and what gives her hope for the future of social work.
