Social Work England: Can trust be rebuilt?

n this week’s episode, Cara and Vince dive into the growing crisis of confidence surrounding Social Work England. With a major independent review now under way, they explore whether trust can truly be rebuilt after fee hikes, backlogs, and a near £1m underspend that has left the profession questioning its regulator’s direction. From cultural concerns to calls for meaningful reform, they ask what accountability should look like - and whether regulation can ever feel supportive again.
