Comments from two participants (using pseudonyms)
Jane- when I read the email (calling for participants) about the project I was just genuinely interested. Social work gets a bad press a lot of the time and I don’t see this project as aimed at bashing social workers but as understanding, informing and hopefully moving things forward and I was interested in being a part of that.

Cathy- I think it’s good if we can get our voice heard- we are confined by all the paperwork we have to do- if we can get some help or support, if people understand these are the pressures we are under—you might want to visit a family, you might want to visit a family everyday, but you can’t do that because you have a lot of families and you have also got to write about that visit—so if there is anything that comes out of it (the project) that can feed back to the powers-that-be that would help to change the balance, that would be good.

I’m very interested to be involved in future research and sharing community based projects that will uplift societies.
How do I Jon the group. Thank You.
Hi, thanks for your comment.
Currently we’re not collecting any more data for this project. We’d be really interested to hear your thoughts on what we have done already – through what’s on the website. We’ll also be sharing a journal article shortly, that is based on project work.
Best wishes, and thanks for your interest in our project, Alison
