How do I contact Social Work England?

By Luke Aldred

​If you’re a UK-based social worker or an overseas social worker looking to continue your career in England, you’ll need to register with Social Work England to be able to practice here. Social Work England is the specialist regulator for social work in the country (previously regulated by the Health & Care Professions Council). It is an independent public protection body that sets professional, education and training standards for social workers and is committed to raising standards through collaboration with everyone involved in social work.

There might be a few different reasons as to why you need to get in touch with Social Work England.
