This week, he launched our "Safe" podcast with @carlenefirmin.bsky.social, diving deep into contextual safeguarding and how we can better protect young people.

Ah thanks Roma. Would love to chat about it when we next meet up xx

7. 'Rather than identify and lament the limitations of existing systems we call upon scholars, service leaders, and practitioners to collaborate with the communities and families they serve, and implement the transformational reimagining we know is required'

Have a read and share your thoughts

6. 'Our institutional ethnography invites us to look beyond service performance and instead recommend changes to system purpose'

Without such reform system foundations will continue to shape (and limit) the impact of innovations on service delivery.

5. 'The innovations used, disruptive as they were to service features and facilitative as they were of gradual service improvement, remained frustrated by service foundations. Transformation was required with four foundational assumptions, that service-level innovation alone did not disrupt'

4. We focused on three features of their responses:

Engagement with specific dynamics of EFRH

Ability to support young people through collaborative and trusting relationships

Interagency capabilities

3. We 'examined whether social care organizations could address these challenges by introducing one or more of three innovation frameworks'

Identifying 'the extent to which sites successfully redesigned local systems & the ways their progress was halted, undermined, or otherwise challenged'

2. We note that 'since 2018 policy across the four UK nations has increasingly authorized social work responses to EFRH...Yet, authorizing something to happen, or recommending that it does, is not commensurate with its possibility'

Wow thank you so much 🙏🏾
