Social Work Week 2026

Social Work Week takes place from 16 to 20 March 2026.

It brings people together to celebrate social work.

Lleisiau dewr, brave voices: confident and courageous social work in a changing world

Join us online for our week-long series of inspiring events where we’ll be:

  • celebrating the positive impact of social workers across Wales and the difference they make every day
  • exploring some of the challenges facing social work today and how we can respond to these together
  • sharing learning and experiences to strengthen practice and improve outcomes.

Our events are free to attend, and they’re open to anyone with an interest in social work.

    The programme will be focused around three key themes:
    • creative social work practice, risk, and rights
    • collaboration and co-production to achieve better outcomes
    • developing and maintaining confident practice.

    Registration will open in February, and you'll be able to book your place at our online events. In the meantime, if you have any questions get in touch by emailing socialwork@socialcare.wales.
