Welcome to our 14th edition of the newsletter.
Welcome to our winter edition of the Newsletter -
issue 14. As our minds turn towards the festivities
at Christmas and more optimism ahead on the
possibility of vaccines it remains as usual the
responsibility of each of us to continue to give due
diligence and take precautions in the current pandemic. As reiterated
in previous editions we can do this by following all the information
and guidance on Covid19 (coronavirus) on the PHA Website at:
https://www.publichealth.hscni.net/
Our 14th edition of our newsletter is once again inclusive of updates
and information about developments underway in relation to social
work and social care research and evidence activity here in
Northern Ireland and elsewhere. We are especially delighted that a
number of our practitioners, service users and carers and
academics are engaged in publications in peer reviewed journals and
books. This is the profile we want to maintain. The newsletter also
provides details on forthcoming events including our annual social
work research conference Date March 10th 2021 and links to other
tools and resources.
We hope that you enjoy the new style of newsletter presentation and
layout.
