About this listen

Ade Larigo is a practising social worker, mum, and the founder of Agency Connection, which she launched in 2021 after recognising gaps in diversity, equity, and fair representation within parts of adoption and fostering. With several years of frontline experience working across Local Authorities and Independent Fostering Agencies, Ade understands first-hand the emotional demands and burnout that many social workers — particularly working mums — face every day. Through her work and lived experience, Ade is passionate about supporting social work mums to protect their wellbeing, reconnect with their identity beyond the role, and explore alternative ways to create flexibility and financial security. She believes social workers should not have to sacrifice their health or family life to do meaningful work. Ade continues to work primarily within adoption and fostering and is a committed advocate for diversity, inclusion, and sustainable careers in social work.
