Notă biografică

Hugh is a registered social worker and is currently Professor of Social Work at Manchester Metropolitan University. Hugh was born and brought up in Carrickfergus, Northern Ireland. He is married to Catherine and they have two grown up children; James and Eleanor, of whom they are very proud.

Before moving into academia, he was a practising social worker, team leader, area manager, service manager and assistant director in local authority children and family services. During this time he maintained a keen interest in research for social work practice undertaking his PhD, MPhil, MSc and MA (Econ) part-time. Following 22 years in practice he moved to the University of Salford developing his research interests and publications to include the meaningful involvement and limitations of service users in evaluating/researching social care provision, developing a research informed social work practice, child care practice and the development of learning organisations. Hugh retains a keen interest in practice and is chair of the trustee board for After Adoption, a member of the trustee board for the National Children¿s Bureau (NCB), the advisory group for Involve (NIHR) and a member of SCIE¿s Partner Council.

When Hugh is not working or writing he likes to run, go the theatre and scuba dive -preferably in warmer waters than the UK!
