Fresh questions have been raised over an application by Victoria Climbié’s social worker to practise again in new evidence seen by the Enfield Independent.

Neighbours have produced 30 letters which they say Lisa Arthurworrey, who was sacked from Haringey Council for gross misconduct in the Climbié case, wrote to them over a period of two-and-a-half years.

The letters formed part of evidence used in court which led to a restraining order being issued against her, and her eviction from her home in Seacole Lodge, Pennington Drive on October 1.

In them, she rails against her former colleagues and calls Haringey Council a “cesspit”. She refers to neighbours as “nosey ugly freaks”, “lunatics” and “little tadpoles swimming in the sea” and says they were conspiring with the council against her.

Most of the letters are signed with a big cross and one is written on a receipt for a pair of tights.

Her neighbours claim the letters started arriving after they asked her to turn her music down one evening. They also say she created a shrine to Victoria on an anniversary of her death, while police confirm she branded them as paedophiles.

They said they did not take seriously the wild claims made in the letters but were upset by her comments. One said: “All we were trying to do was to be neighbourly yet we have had sheer hell with her.”

Her letters often attacked the council. In one she wrote: “I should never have accepted a job in the cesspit. Nothing more and nothing less.”

Despite losing her job and licence to practise in 2002, Ms Arthurworrey, who fled to her family home in Scunthorpe after being evicted, still wants to be a social worker.

Earlier this year she successfully appealed for the right to apply to be re-registered with the General Social Care Council, (GSCC) the body responsible for regulating social workers in the UK, and she has now reapplied.

A spokesman for the GSCC said that before Ms Arthurworrey is accepted she must have a psychiatric assessment and more training. She would also serve a probationary period and would be regularly assessed for at least three years.

Attempts to contact Ms Arthurworrey have been unsuccessful.

However close friend and ex-social worker Liz Davies, who accompanied Ms Arthurworrey to her tribunal hearings, said: “She was under so much stress in that flat.

“Her mental health state has never been a problem, but it was about having a voice. She never had any justice.”

The Independent has passed the letters on to the GSCC.
