"If you want to work for a progressive, forward thinking authority where you can grow and develop to be a really good practitioner, come and work for Leicestershire County Council."
Gill, Children and Family Services
"The best thing about being a social worker is that you can make a difference...you can go into a situation where it looks like there is no hope, and where families are in real crisis and feel like there's no way out for them. But a social worker can go in and help to make a real difference, settle things down, help families to look at a situation with fresh eyes, and hopefully come up with solutions to help families remain together."
Dawn, Social Worker Team Manager
"Having only been employed for almost four weeks, the team I have joined are lovely and I can't have been made to feel any more welcome than I have."
Lisa, Education Service
"I have found the Aspiring Managers course really useful. I am grateful that I was given the opportunity to be part of the course. I liked the idea of a mixture of presentations, discussions and group participations."

"I have worked for Leicestershire since I qualified in social work 9 years ago. I am now a Service Manager and have been supported by all of my managers over the years, and the organisation as a whole, to develop and progress in my skills and career. I would not think about working anywhere else."
