UNISON is very happy once again to be involved in this year’s Social Worker of the Year Awards and to be presenting the Team of the Year, Adult Services Award.

Social workers do vital work in supporting and protecting individuals and communities.  We are really pleased that through these awards they are receiving some well-deserved recognition for the work they’ve done.

As the UK’s largest trade union for social workers and the wider social care workforce, we know the challenges social workers face and the differences they make to people’s lives.  As an organisation built on solidarity and togetherness, UNISON would like to pay tribute to the social work teams that practice effective team working on a daily basis.  Great teamwork, alongside high-quality professionalism is at the heart of excellent public service and social work.

We also applaud the social workers across the country who are taking a stand through UNISON against the wider challenges facing the profession like continued austerity, rising demand for services and growing caseloads.  The fight for better pay, working conditions and genuine development opportunities will result in better services for the public.

UNISON hopes that all the attendees have a fantastic evening.
