Personal financial resources & s.117 aftercare: Tinsley v Manchester City Council 2017

The Masked AMHP

People who follow my blog will know how exercised I can become about S.117 after care entitlement, especially when that entitlement is being concealed or misrepresented to patients by local authorities. Indeed, one of the commonest enquiries I receive is from relatives of people entitled to S.117 who are, to put it bluntly, being hoodwinked by local authorities who are at best ignorant of their.

Kids and the Mental Health Pandemic

Shelter, Inc

Since March of 2020, the pandemic fists have been pummeling children from every direction, just as they have adults, but often in different ways.

For example, psychologist Tali Raviv from Northwestern University published a study involving over 40,000 Chicago Public School children from kindergarten through 12 th grade in April 2021.

'What about me?’ Author-researcher-insider-outsider-imposter conundrum

Learning Social Worker

All professionals in health, social care, or education, have personal lives and experiences that influence who their values and practice. Gaining insight into who we are, what we bring, and how this impacts on every aspect of what we do – developing reflexivity – is a critical part of any vocational student’s journey.
