Social work
Practising as a social worker with us is special. We speak on behalf of children and young people to ensure their thoughts, wishes and feelings are not just understood – they are heard.
Working for us
At Cafcass, we are united by our purpose - ensuring the unique voices of children and young people are heard in the family court. We put their needs, wishes and feelings first when big decisions are being made about their futures. Whether you join one of our social work teams or our corporate and business services teams, you will help improve the lives of children, families and carers for years to come.

Achieving the best outcomes for children, families, and you.
For every child whose current and future living arrangements are decided by the family courts, we seek to provide an exceptional experience, everywhere, and every time. We prioritise their safety and welfare, their voices and their unique needs, taking full account of their families and those connected to them.
No other organisation does the kind of work we do. At Cafcass, we give you the tools to do the very best work possible. Watch our video to see how.
Feedback from a child with whom we have worked
"My Cafcass worker understood and took everything I said straight to her mind and remembered that. She listened tons. She also didn’t change anything I said. Again I could not thank her more. She got everything spot on exactly what I wanted."
