In today’s episode, we’re exploring how you can build a flourishing career in social care that makes a real difference to people’s lives.
Everybody’s life will be touched by social care at some point, and the sector is only going to become more important in the future. It deserves to have ambitious, caring individuals leading the way in its transformation, and maybe you’re one of them.
Jordan is joined by Danny Macey, Associate Training Manager at Brook Street Social Care to discuss opportunities for growth, common stereotypes and why some people just have that X-factor.
