Well it has certainly been a while since we last updated this page! Let me first introduce and welcome our newest team members Vicki & Penny. Vicki is our new administrator and has been with us since July '09, she is responsible for general office duties, supporting myself, covering shifts and helping to keep the office running smoothly! Penny has been with us since November '09 and is our Director of Social Care Development. Penny has been responsible for the majority of our new and fantastic ideas!

Social Work Task Force

Social Work Choices has sponsored two events which were held by LGC in conjunction with eMap. They were held in November last year and January this year and we attended both conferences. To our happiness both were extremely successful for us. Penny had her own slot to talk to the entire conference and made a huge impression (well done Penny!).  Further information on LGC and eMap is available by following these links; www.lgcplus.com and www.emapeducation.com

Social Work Choices will continue to seek to expand and develop our services for all our social workers and clients.
We foresee that our services for people with learning disabilities is set to significantly expand to include the promotion of services, which promote choice, independence and integration.
