Leslie Healey is accused of having formed an improper relationship with a social services client, and of asking another woman for sex.

Healey, who was employed by Kirklees from 1997 but is no longer with the council, is due to face a disciplinary panel of the General Social Care Council (GSCC), which regulates social care.

Healey has also been accused of several misconduct allegations while working for North Yorkshire County Council prior to being a Kirklees employee.

In one case he was alleged to have visited a woman in her home, tried to kiss her and touched her inappropriately.

He is alleged to have told one woman, Ms B, that he wanted to have sex with her.

And he is accused of having a sexual relationship with another client, Ms C, from 1998.

Healey is said to have taken Miss C and her children on holidays, loaned her £5,000 and shared confidential information with her.

A spokesman for the GSCC said the allegations would be aired at a tribunal meeting in London.
