FAQ's
Who is the Workshop for?
This 'Talk Life Story' Workshop is for social workers who work with children who are in foster care or adopted. We plan to have other 'Talk Life Story' Workshops for foster carers and adoptive parents in the future. If you are a social worker, working with children this workshop is for you.
What platform is the Workshop on?
The workshop is a live workshop in a private Facebook group. When you sign up you will be given access to the group so you can access the workshop. We use Facebook so those who cannot access the workshop at 9am (we know how busy social workers are) can watch the video replay later in the day. Access to the recording of the workshop will be available for one week, after that recordings will be made available to those who sign up to receive a hard copy recording. If your work PC/Laptop won't access Facebook you can access the recordings on a personal laptop, phone or tablet.
Does the Workshop take Life Story Practice Guidance into account?
Absolutely! The workshop takes into account Life Story practice guidance in England and Wales. Throughout the workshop you will hear about how implementing the practices you hear about you will be compliant with practice guidance.
