The Full Story
ISWnorthwest offers Supervised Contacts, Social Work Assessments and Stage 2 complaint investigations across the north west of England.
Experienced Social Worker, Fiona Thompson, started working as an Independent Social Worker (ISW) in 2016. Prior to this Fiona worked for a number of local authorities across the north west in frontline duty & assessment teams; MASH, child protection and case holding teams. Since establishing ISWnorthwest, the business has grown and developed over the last 5 years and has recently been re-branded and this new website created.
ISWnorthwest has a passion for delivering high quality work for children and their parents across the north west. ISWnorthwest believes that Supervised Contact should be an enjoyable expereince for children and their parents. After supervising countless contact sessions, ISWnorthwest has become adept at efficiently supervising contact and offering parenting advice whilst still allowing children to see their parents in more familiar locations. This might be a parents home, a local park, a restaurant. ISWnorthwest has contact with various play centres and can also offer supervised contacts in such settings out of hours where the facility is quieter for families.
ISWnorthwest strives to produce the best quality work whether that be a social work assessment, court report or complaint investigation.
ISWnorthwest prides itself on been a clear communicator with parents and professionals alike.
ISWnorthwest will work in an open and honest way to support families, courts and local authorities to ensure that children are safeguarded and provided the best opportunities possible.
