I'm Sumayya and I set this company up in 2019 with my son, Ashley (in the picture). Ash was an aspiring Social Worker at the time and had great ideas for how we could work together to do good and help others. We had a farm and had a therapy horse available which was pretty awesome! Sadly Ash had some health challenges and he died in November 2020.
The loss of a child is something that changes you forever. I am blessed with a daughter and she inspires me to keep going. So through Ash's Place I practice ethical and kind Independent Social Work in order to help people. I also have some fantastic Associates to work with me when required.
I'm grateful to my past colleagues in the statutory settings I've worked in before, and I am pleased to be making new connections with people keen to work with me as an Independent Social Worker, Trainer or Consultant.
Ash's Place offers Independent Social Worker services tailored to your needs. Much of our work is in relation to Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS) Assessments, and independent complaint investigations. We're keen on research and we deliver training in relation to key health & social care issues. We're happy to discuss your needs around specialist consultancy support.
