I live in Leeds (UK). I retired from Bretton Hall, University of Leeds, in 1999, where I was latterly Practice Learning Coordinator for the Diploma in Social Work (BA) programme. I was a mature recruit to Social Work, qualifying in 1977. Prior to that time I worked in the Engineering Industry.
I have been a regular visitor to and user of your 'Spartacus' site, which I find is an excellent resource. For the first time, last week, I visited the 'forum' pages and the hours seemed to pass too quickly....this was most stimulating and left me with the desire to join the forum and continue this process with perhaps the occasional contribution.
