Part 3/9:
The challenges faced by social workers are explored through the experiences of individuals like Yolanda, a seasoned social worker committed to her community in South London. She candidly describes her hectic workday, dealing with referrals stemming from significant domestic abuse and the social ramifications posed by poverty. Yolanda states, “More children are being referred to Social Services because of poverty…by virtue of the family being poor, it could lead to neglect.”
