This is the latest in UNISON’s Radical Social Work Webinar series and is designed to raise awareness of autism and neuro-diversity for social workers generally – both in terms of approaches to supporting service users, and the challenges for workers who are autistic.
Speakers include Ramon Hutchinson, project manager at South Lanarkshire’s Autism Resource and Co-Ordination Centre, and John Whiteside, recently qualified social worker from South Lanarkshire who was diagnosed with ADHD and autism.
Chaired by Roger Ridley, social worker and mental health officer from Falkirk Council branch.
