Ashly Holderness - AJH Social Work

Ashley Holderness

I’m the founder of AJH Social Work, an experienced and highly qualified social worker with a background in law.

After completing my Master’s degree in Social Work at the University of Lincoln, I held various leadership roles in adult social care, mental health services, and safeguarding within local authorities, NHS Trusts, and Integrated Care Boards.

My extensive experience includes developing best practices, conducting complex assessments, and navigating the intricacies of the Court of Protection.
