10 02 26 - Special Interest Group on Social Work & Ageing - full SIG mtg

Our aim is to challenge ageism and advocate for more effective social work practice in later life.

Our work includes: • Advocating for social work responses to improve wellbeing through allyship and empowerment • Promoting policy and holistic practice that recognises diversity and intersecting experiences within the ageing population • Promoting social work in later life in education and professional development • Developing and sharing evidence about how social work contributes to positive ageing.

We welcome BASW members and allies with lived or practice experience.
