In this presentation, Mark explores possibilities for using physical objects in direct work with children, young people and their families. He will do this by encouraging participants to consider the place of Objects in their own lives. He will consider ‘charged objects’ – these are objects with particular power and meaning.
Mark has collaborated with Coram (the UK’s largest Children’s Charity) to compile a Resource Pack called Using Objects in Social Work for use in direct social work practice. Mark will share examples from the Pack and invite your further participation, if you wish, in piloting these Resources.
Initially, the Resources are for work with children and young people, though the hope is to extend this kind of work throughout social work practice.
