Profile
I am a social worker and social care leader since 1999, working in frontline safeguarding services to children. I am skilled in (but not limited to) safeguarding assessment, ParentAssess, family support, fostering assessments, supervision, training, auditing, policy and strategic development. I have practice experience as a Team Manager, Conference Chair and Head of Locality Services in 5 differing Local Authorities. I focus on the welfare of the child as my paramount consideration and practice from a relational, strengths-based perspective. I bring a range of experience from working in local authorities, charities, private agencies and bespoke commissions.
