Social work college open for members

The College of Social Work has officially opened for business and is inviting social workers to join.

The College has been set up in response to recommendations made by the Social Work Task Force which carried out a two year review of the profession. 

Fifteen recommendations were made for improving and reforming social work, including establishment of an independent national college.

The organisation will provide leadership, a clear voice in public debate, policy development and delivery, and set professional standards. 

Membership will cost employed social workers £60 a year.
