Interim Suspension Start Date : 10 October 2025 End Date : 9 April 2027

If a social worker has an employment address, the register will display the postal town of the employment address. If this column is blank, this means that the social worker has not provided us with an employment address. We do not display the postal town of a social worker’s home address.

01 August 2012

This is the date that the social worker was added to the register of the Health and Care Professions Council (the organisation that registered social workers in England before us). Any social worker who joined the register after 1 August 2012 will show the date that they were first added to the register. For anyone who restored to the register, it will show the date that they re-joined the register.

30 November 2025

This date will show the last day that the social worker is registered. Each registration period is 12 months and social workers are registered from 1 December until 30 November.

No recorded annotations

If a registered social worker is also registered as an Approved Mental Health Professional or Best Interests Assessor, this will be recorded here.
