Welcome to our new ‘Spotlight Sessions’ – events designed to raise awareness of an idea, approach or research that we believe could interest and inspire those involved in social work, social care, health, and related third and voluntary sectors. These sessions are open to all and recommended for anyone across all sectors interested in understanding more.
“Outsmart your Unconscious Bias” will look at where we might have biases that impact our practice and, once we know about them, what we can do about them. We’ll chat about the different influences on how we experience the world around us and the power of language in our daily communication.
This event will be available to add to ‘My Learning’ in the Leading to Change app on completion of attendance.
