Lynda reflects on her involvement with Unity

Lynda

Hi, my name is Lynda and I am a member of Unity, which is a group within the university. We meet up every six weeks. I love being involved in Unity. All the members belong to other groups on the outside but getting together with Unity is the highlight of our work. We work with the undergraduate and postgraduate social work students, we do a series of workshops which includes a lot of role-play. The Unity members all love taking part in these workshops. So do the students, they say that it helps them immensely with their studies. We aim to produce the best social workers in Scotland and we do, it has been proved throughout the ten years Unity has been going.  We ourselves get so much out of working with the students. It gives us confidence and makes us feel we are making a difference showing empathy and compassion.
