Social Work Scotland

Social Work Scotland is the professional leadership body for the social work and social care professions. We are a membership body and we work to influence policy and legislation and to support the development of the social work and social care workforce. Our core team is based in Edinburgh, and work to support our organisation as well as running a number of national projects around the design and implementation of policy and legislation.

We work closely with the Scottish Association of Social Work (SASW) – part of BASW – a membership-led, professional association for social workers across the UK, who also provide a union function.
