The CPR is an independent, voluntary register maintained by the National Association of Care & Support Workers (NACAS),  for care and support professionals in England. Developed without government direction, it provides a trusted way for professionals to demonstrate their commitment to high standards in care.

The CPR has met the Professional Standards Authority’s Public Interest Standard 1 for Accredited Registers, (details here), offering assurance that it promotes public protection and professional excellence.

Raising the standard. Recognising the workforce. Shaping the future of care.

The Care Professionals Register (CPR) is the professional home for everyone working in social care. We are building a stronger, more connected sector—one where care is recognised as the skilled, respected, and vital profession it truly is.

Build Professionalism in Social Care

By joining CPR, you are taking a powerful step forward—for your career, your colleagues, and the people you support.

Registration shows your commitment to quality care, high standards, and ethical practice. It means you’re part of a professional community that values development, accountability, and excellence.

Whether you're new to care or have years of experience, CPR is here to help you grow, thrive, and be recognised for the incredible work you do.

Access a National Network

When you register, you're not just listed—you’re connected.

Gain access to a growing network of like-minded care professionals across the country. Share knowledge, support each other, and stay informed with tools, resources, and learning opportunities tailored to your role.

Together, we are creating a more unified and confident workforce that can raise standards from within.

Be Part of Something Bigger

Joining CPR is more than a personal achievement—it’s a contribution to the future of social care.

We are building a movement to elevate the status of care work, influence positive change, and ensure the sector gets the recognition and investment it deserves.

Your voice matters. Your experience matters. And by standing together, we can help shape a care system that works for everyone—those who give care, and those who receive it.

We strongly encourage care and support professionals in England to register. Those who join are expected to meet minimum training requirements, uphold the values and behaviours associated with quality care, follow a Code of Conduct, and carry out their work to the highest professional standards.
