“It would be fair to say that the session proved to be one of the most popular among all the students within the module. Feedback referred to how insightful and illuminating the event was and more importantly, how being given the opportunity to listen directly to those who had experienced directly the receipt of ‘services’ and ‘interventions’, had a positive impact on their thoughts of inclusive and collaborative social work practice.

The whole area of including within taught sessions, ‘expertise of experience’, is one I hope to further pursue with the group in the near future. Many thanks to you all, from both myself and the students.”
