The St Christopher’s Social Care/Palliative Care blog was listed recently as one of the top 50 social work blogs.
See the listing at: http://mastersofsocialwork.org/top-50-blogs-by-social-work-professionals.html
This is my longest-running blog. However, since I write it for St Christopher’s and focus on end-of-life care, I publish other social work blogs elsewhere.
To update you, here they are:
This my ‘Social Work around the World’ blog. here I comment on news items about social work in different parts of the world; mainly not the UK.
I try to look for positives about social work, and my commentary tries to learn from what is going on in social work elsewhere, that could suggest how social work could be better in the UK (or wherever you are). You could comment on what you think about these bits of news.

My self-positioning blog has been running for about six months. It is a personal development project, connected to some teaching about humanistic social work that I’ve been doing.
Most days, it delivers a photo, and an ‘oppi’, a series of gentle questions inspired by the photo that get you to think about yourself in relation to others in your life.
You can submit your own oppis or comments, perhaps in response to oppis. There are also quotes.

My Amplify blog comments on (amplifies) news about UK social policy relevant to social work and social care. I use this to reprint excerpts from the news and comment (briefly) on things that don’t fit with the St Christopher’s/end-of-life care focus of this blog.
