Summary: An interview with Ben Farrugia, Director of Social Work Scotland. Ben held a variety of policy roles down in London (with a particular interest in education and children’s services). In 2009, he moved up to Scotland to work in the government’s Looked After Children team and in 2011 moved to the University of Strathclyde to join the team that would soon after become CELCIS. In his own words, he is 'now very proud to be leading Social Work Scotland’s small Edinburgh based team, which provides support to various committees and groups, and represents members in discussions with Parliament, Government and other partners'.
