Episode 69 - An Interview with Brigid Featherstone

In what is a summer episode we speak to Professor Brigid Featherstone regarding her recent co authored academic paper in the Journal of Child and Family Social Work, On hope, loss, anger and the spaces in between: Reflections on living with/in adoption and the role of the social worker. This builds on the earlier enquiry commissioned by BASW The role of the social worker in adoption – ethics and human rights: An Enquiry.  We discuss a range of issues including safe spaces for discussion, information sharing, lives at risk, the negative impact of timescales and the voice of children.
