Loneliness and isolation during the pandemic

Learn on the go: the Community Care podcast

We know social workers are working harder than ever in the challenging conditions brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic. To help meet your need for information and guidance we’re developing a mini-series of podcasts and webinars about coronavirus and how it’s affecting social work practice.
Our expert guest was Dr Sue Cook, lecturer in social work at the University of Plymouth.
The episode covers:
- How loneliness and isolation have been exacerbated by the Covid-19 pandemic.
- Supporting service users who are experiencing loneliness or isolation, whatever stage of life they're at.
- How to be creative to find solutions when working with service users online or in person.
