About Us...
The Care Alliance for Workforce Development (CAWD) was formed in 2009 as one of the Skills for Care sub-regional partnerships. The vision was that CAWD would develop relationships and networks with a broad base of employers and training providers in social care in the sub region. Through these networks it was envisaged that local issues for social care could both be identified and addressed.

What does CAWD do?
CAWD works to improve the services on offer to people who use services and carers. It does this by working in a collaborative, flexible and responsive manner to improve the skills and knowledge of the social care workforce. CAWD engages with employers of all sizes from across the social care sector and encourages service users and carers to get involved. CAWD also delivers on a range of activities on behalf of Skills for Care Yorkshire and the Humber, which cover a number of the Putting People First work-streams.
