Your chance to help shape this magazine!
Are you BASW member in Wales, Northern Ireland or England who would like to play a more active role in Professional Social Work magazine?
We’re looking for BASW members to join PSW’s editorial board as representatives for Wales (1 representative), Northern Ireland (1 representative) and England (2 representatives). You don’t need to have knowledge of publishing – the role of the board is to advise and support the editor on the content and direction of the magazine and monitor its quality. As a board member, you’ll take part in three meetings a year (MS Teams) where you will get a chance to review editions, contribute ideas and share social work expertise. Joining the board not only provides an opportunity to input into the production of PSW, it’s also a great way to increase your skills and experience.
We would particularly welcome applications from frontline practitioners. The board aims to reflect the geographic and professional diversity of social workers. We are committed to inclusion and welcome applicants from underrepresented communities.
Successful applicants are expected to complete a three-year term, with an option to stay for a further three years, and commit to attend our three annual editorial board meetings.
• Completed application forms should be emailed to publishing@basw.co.uk by 15 June 2026.
You must be an existing BASW member to join the board.
