Welcome to Learn on the go, a Community Care Inform podcast where we discuss what the latest research, practice models and policy guidance mean to your practice.

This episode is about using strengths-based practice in action. What skills do social workers need for strengths-based practice? How can social workers carry out strengths-based assessments? And how can social work supervisors use a strengths-based approach? Discussing these questions are Tricia Pereira, principal social worker, practitioner development lead for London ADASS and chair of the principal social workers' network; Carmen Colomina, social worker and practice development manager in SCIE, and Samantha Baron, professor of social work at Manchester Metropolitan University.
