This mini series for the C Tea podcast celebrates Social Work Week from Monday 17th to 21st of March 2025. In this podcast episode Simon our Social Work Team Leader in Northern Ireland from Young Lives vs Cancer speaks to Cathie who had thyroid cancer as a teenager but is now a qualified social worker working in residential care. Cathie talks about her initial impression of Simon and how ultimately his support during and after her treatment inspired her career choice. Enjoy!
