OUR JOURNEY

Set on Making a Difference

At Halton Borough Council, we recognise that our people are our most valuable asset as they are uniquely placed to make a difference in the lives of vulnerable children, young people and their families. We want all children and young people in Halton to have a positive start in life, be safe and reach their potential. To achieve this, we realise just how important it is to have highly-skilled, experienced and stable social work teams in place.

This starts with making sure that our staff have the tools, training and time they need to be effective in their role. That’s why our journey is a rewarding one. When you practice social work with us, you do so in a team full of like-minded people on the same journey for excellence.
