Heart on hand icon

Working in social work can be incredibly fulfilling, allowing you to directly help people in need, and make positive differences in their lives. Two days are never the same, ranging from helping people cope with various everyday life issues through to more complicated ones such as incidents of neglect, abuse, or domestic violence.

Three people icon

Social Workers advocate for those who can’t always advocate for themselves. A career in social work is perfect for those who want to make a positive life-changing difference to individuals, families, and communities.

Continuous professional development (CPD) plays a huge part in the role and life of a Social Worker, allowing them to gain and develop the skills, knowledge, and experience to become the best version of themselves. Our Social Workers have defined career pathways that allow their career to develop and flourish as they wish.
