Tue 17 March, 2026 @ 18:30 - 20:00

Description

Radical social work is a rich tradition but too often it is only accessible via academia. Instead we want to bring together those who work in social care, have experience of it, or just have an interest. Together we’ll consider topics such as the family, motherhood, care, and injustice embedded in current systems. We’ll then ask how social care could be practiced in new, truly emancipatory and radical ways.

Specific topic for this month’s event TBC!

What to expect

After a short introductory talk, we will discuss the topic in small groups, with some time to feed back to the whole room. Most of our events have somewhere between 10-30 attendees. We aim for every event to be accessible to everyone, regardless of any prior knowledge!

About Bristol Transformed

Bristol Transformed is a grassroots, volunteer-run, socialist education group. Bringing together activists, trade unionists, and everyone who wants to learn, we’re creating the space to discuss the most important issues facing us, equipping us with the skills and knowledge to transform Bristol and the world.

We run an annual festival of politics, arts and culture in May, and weekly events throughout the rest of the year. See all our events here.

Bristol Transformed is run by dozens of local people. Without new people coming in every year, we wouldn’t be able to maintain the same standard of political education events that you enjoy. If you’d be interested in joining us, sign up as a BT volunteer today and we’ll be in touch!
