Buko Esegbona

Hello! I’m Buko, founder of Solutions Social Care and a qualified social worker and autism practitioner.
Oliver McGowan Approved Trainer
As Head of Services at Solutions Social Care, I’m proud to be an approved trainer for ‘The Oliver McGowan Training on Learning Disability and Autism’.
I deliver both Tier 1 and Tier 2 sessions, co-training alongside individuals with lived experience. This partnership is powerful—it ensures the training is real, relatable, and grounded in the voices that matter most. My focus is on helping staff build confidence, challenge assumptions, and apply practical tools that lead to safer, more inclusive care.
As someone who has worked across a wide range of services and supported individuals with complex needs, I know how important the right training is. Being able to guide others through this nationally recognised course allows me to support the wider sector in raising the standard of care and this is a responsibility I take seriously.
