Our Vision

In Norfolk we believe everyone deserves to start life well, live well and age well. We want to make the county an outstanding place to love for all, where diversity is valued, and all our young people cal fulfil their potential, have a positive future and flourish!

Here at Norfolk, we are ambitious and passionately committed, with a real track record of success and strong aspirations for further excellence. We were recognised by Ofsted in January 2023 for being Good across Children’s Services with exceptional and outstanding practice in a number of areas. We are most proud of our ways of working, the relationships we build with each other, partner agencies, and most importantly children and their family networks, who we put at the heart of everything we do.

We know social work can be a tough but rewarding job. We care about creating an environment where social workers:

  • Have real flexibility for the best work-life balance
  • Can spend more time with families than files
  • Have the right support to manage caseloads
  • Have managerial back up for big decisions
  • Have the right professional and emotional support for wellbeing and career development
