“we are very supportive team that look after each other and we do create the space to think reflectivity about our practice”
“I think the team is really supportive and proactive in making time for reflective practice. But as a NQSW, the best bit for me is working in a team where it feels ok to ask questions. I’ve never been made to feel like my questions are stupid or I’m wasting someone’s time. It’s a really supportive learning environment”
