Services
Practical, ethically grounded work for the people and organisations who live with the realities of Children’s Services.
Independent research into the structural forces that shape social work practice and family life, from racism and class inequality to managerialism and the culture of care proceedings, grounded in the voices of practitioners and families.
Teaching that closes the gap between what social work education teaches and what frontline practice demands. It draws on two decades of statutory practice and university teaching.
Expert, independent advice for local authorities, voluntary organisations, legal teams and practitioners who want practice that is just, humane and defensible.
A place to be heard for practitioners, students and families who have been silenced, marginalised or harmed by the system that was meant to help them.
Who we work with
Social workers tired of being treated as disposable labour, and students who refuse to be complicit in their own oppression.
Parents navigating local authority involvement and children who have survived the care system, seen as people, not statistics.
Local authorities, charities, universities and legal teams committed to practice rooted in justice and dignity.
