Social Work Awards, the charity behind the annual Social Worker of the Year Awards ceremony, will be hosting a live virtual event for social workers on Thursday 26 November.

Taking place from 4pm to 5pm, the special ‘Thank You Social Workers’ event will reflect on the unique challenges and give recognition to the bravery and dedication of social workers throughout Covid-19. It will feature inspiring messages from celebrities, interviews filmed with frontline social work practitioners and first-hand stories told by young people and adults who have been supported by social workers during the pandemic.

Tickets will be free of charge and pre-registration (which will be essential) will open from Monday 19 October.
