Episode notes

Professor of Child Advocacy Eunice Lumsden has been a social worker and, latterly, a childhood, youth and families professional for several decades. Squeezing in all of her knowledge and experiences was always going to be a tall order for a single podcast episode!

Tune in to hear about Eunice’s fascinating, varied careers, including leading University of Northampton’s Childhood, Youth and Families (CY&F) subjects areas, part of our Golden Threads series of podcasts with Dr Helen Simmons and Robin Sturman-Coombs exploring the themes that run throughout the CY&F sector.

The trio also discuss how our courses help shape the development of the CY&F workforce and what our students get out of studying and how getting a degree helped Eunice to influence and shape national policy.

See our website for more about CY&F courses.
