University of Plymouth Social work subject taster session: Beyond the clutter

Discover how hoarding behaviours can affect a person’s daily life and explore what social workers can do to offer support. This virtual subject taster session is designed to give you an insight into social work study at the University of Plymouth, with a focus on real-world practice, current research and the kinds of questions social workers consider when supporting vulnerable people.

The session is interactive and led by Mr Lawrence Badman-Richards. You will explore theories of trauma, look at real-life examples and discuss the latest research to build a deeper understanding of the issues involved.

It is a useful opportunity if you are thinking about studying social work and want to find out more about the subject, the course and the kind of thinking involved in professional social work practice.
