The Geese model combines drama and theatrical performance of complex social work situations with keynote speakers who are experts in their fields, such as Professor Harry Ferguson (home visits), Michael Sheath (child sexual abuse imagery) and Ciaran, in relation to substance misuse. Each performance has been designed and developed in collaboration with experts by experience, to ensure not only the integration of theory with theatre, but also to enable social work professionals and students to explore their responses to practice-relevant scenarios in real time. Performances also provide space to pause, reflect, and revisit decisions, all without real-world consequences.
