Going Independent: an honest guide for social workers who love their work and want more freedom in how they do it

Going Independent; an honest guide for social workers who love their work and want more freedom in how they do it

What is this? A small, intimate online session for social workers who are thinking about going independent or have already made the decision and want clarity on next steps.

This isn't a polished programme or a follow these steps formula. It's an honest, real conversation about what independent social work actually looks like the good parts, the hard parts, and everything in between.

What we'll cover The different options available to independent social workers and what they actually look like in practice. The reality of finding work, pricing yourself, and building something sustainable. The mistakes I made along the way and what I'd do differently. How to protect your values and professional standards while running your own practice. Clear, practical next steps for wherever you are in the process.
