Remodelling Social Work Delivery Project

CWDC recognises it has an important role to play in working with partners to deliver the required improvements and further details will be published here as they become available.

As part of this work CWDC launched a new project to develop and support innovative and pioneering social work delivery across England.

The Remodelling Social Work Delivery Project will test out new approaches to social work deployment so staff expertise can be used more widely, enabling better direct work with clients.

CWDC offered funding and resource for 18 social work pilots (two per Government Office region), a central support contractor and a central evaluator over the next three years. The pilots will be expected to demonstrate, explore and develop innovative evidence-based social work that:

• frees social worker time to enable more direct work with vulnerable children, young people and their families, leading to improved outcomes for service users
• 
  
• provides effective background support for social work staff to achieve better delivery overall.
