Welcome to BASW events

Take your first step with BASW and join us at our next Welcome to BASW event

Each month we hold welcome events that take place online for you to:

  • Hear from a BASW Representative
  • Learn how to maximise your membership benefits 
  • Get your questions answered by one of the team

This online lunch time session will provide an opportunity for members to learn more about BASW UK activities, your membership benefits, advice and representation and how you can access CPD, be involved in our campaigns, consultations, networks and special interest groups.

Your Professional Association connects you with other social workers working in diverse settings across different nations at different stages of career pathways.

Human rights and social justice are core social work values and together we can promote the voice of social work and the BASW Code of Ethics.

Come along to our interactive sessions to hear more about what BASW can do for you.
