SSSC — the Scottish Social Services Council
Scotland's regulator for social workers (and the wider social care workforce) under the Regulation of Care (Scotland) Act 2001, with a free public Check the Register. The annual fee is on an approved escalator: £96 for 2026–27, rising £8/year to £120 in 2029–30.
✔ Verified by VeriferaGuideWhich UK social work register am I checked against? The four-register map
