Day 17’s #LockdownDoorstep is in a #Dulwich, south #London garden, not doorstep. Shula & Isaac welcomed Tadewos 243 nights ago. His wife arrived on a family reunification visa in January, & joined him there. She’s learning English, he’s at uni, & great company for their hosts.

The principles of equality, diversity and inclusion have always been at the heart of social work and social care. Now more than ever we must all play our part in calling out and tackling all forms of injustice. #Blacklivesmatter #socialcare #equalityanddiversity
