I would like to invite you to attend one of our Scottish Care Workforce focus groups that we are holding in February around current issues and challenges facing Managers and Supervisors working within social care. The feedback that is provided from you, our members, at these focus groups will then form the basis for the next workforce event that we will be having in April, details to follow.
The first focus group is being held in Glasgow on the 4th February 2020 between 10:30am-12:30pm at the St Stephen Renfield Centre, 260 Bath Street, Glasgow, G2 4JP.
Please can anyone interested in attending contact me at [email protected] to book a place.
As always your feedback and assistance is hugely appreciated and will be used to inform our research which will then be compiled into a Scottish Care workforce report for care providers and major stakeholders within the care sector including Scottish and local government to help to drive positive policy changes.
We will also be asking care providers to share their own stories of working as Managers and Supervisors in social care and the many demands and challenges that are currently being faced. I would ask where possible Managers of services bring Supervisors and Team Leaders with them to this focus group so that we are hearing directly from front line workers.
Thanks
Caroline Deane
Workforce Policy & Practice Lead
