"is an exceptional read. It is a resource not only for social workers, but for all professionals and services working to support people in their everyday lives. This extraordinary resource brings together some of the most innovative and impactful practices in social work today - and could not be more needed." Journal of Solution Focused Practices "This is a very well-timed book that explores a number of pertinent examples of strengths-based approaches in social work practice, and will be an excellent resource for social work academics and students, and newly qualified and experienced social workers." Lee Sobo-Allen, Leeds Beckett University "Offering welcome relief to the often-negative characterisations of people in social welfare systems, this book provides accessible ways to guard against judgemental, disempowering interactions and nurture relational, energising connections."
