Witchcraft accusations against children are occurring ever more frequently in the UK yet continue to be underestimated by social work professionals. This book provides a personal narrative of witchcraft being used as a tool for the infliction of child abuse. The narrative is interspersed with reflective questions, practice dilemmas and relevant links to contemporary policy and practice in social work.
