Inside the mind of a Do-Gooder
An entertaining stage story of a social worker caught between empowerment and disillusion, read by Phelim Drew. A social worker trying to keep faith with a social work that aspired to the ’empowerment and liberation of people’. A story of illusion, delusion and disillusion, as he reflects on the journey’.
