Thank you so much for sharing this get2gether I am looking for a couple of advisors who are autistic with a learning disability for my study. I’m able to pay for this work (about 3hrs max). Advisors would need to be near Edinburgh if wanting to meet face to face

The social work team recently met with Liza Noble, SSSC to discuss Newly Qualified Social Worker pathways. It's so important that students are well supported as they make the transition from social work education to newly qualified social workers.
