Just my thoughts on the mobile number issue, while I do understand the idea And I think there is a greater use of them my fear is what happens if that worker is on holiday or off sick? That vulnerable person has asked for help, left a text or message and no one gets back to them. What does that say to the person because I switch my phone off at the end of the day. They don’t go through a central system where they are picked up by someone else just in case.

I would have concerns about handing out my work mobile number to everyone.

As an adult services worker who often deals with adults who have been through the cared for system who cannot cope I think we need to look at ways of addressing these deep psychological needs I would like there to be greater focus on this. I don’t think giving mobiles is enough though to cover this gap. The social work role seems to be less about direct support than assessing risk and completing reports.

Hi Jenny
Thanks for sharing your story, I can really relate to it. My parents were also addicts and we were neglected and abused. Worse still when we were taken or rather abducted into care, I was sexually abused by their son, I was 7 years old. I never actually saw a social worker at all during our time in care or since. Nothing was done about the abuse and we were eventually returned home to more abuse and neglect. I was never offered any support even when at the age of 15 I was thrown out by my parents, the response by a social worker was to tell me to return home, to more abuse, Needless to say I didn’t take her advice.
I’ve been in and out of Primary care most of my adult life and often wonder if things would have been different if I’d had some positive input from anyone. I couldn’t agree more about giving children in care contact details, it’s the least they should be doing to safeguard those children at a very vulnerable stage of their lives.
