Welcome to Independent Advocacy
We represent the interests of people who may find it difficult to be
heard or speak out for themselves. These can include older people,
those with disabilities and those with mental health problems.
With the support of trained staff, we provide an advocacy and appointee
service. This gives a voice to people who need support to make their
own choices because they are frail or disabled or because of financial
or social circumstances. It also enables them to have their individual
needs and views respected and acted upon.
We are a voluntary service. To join our team please visit our Volunteers page.
Become a Volunteer
Some people need advocates because our society is not very good at listening and responding to people who are disadvantaged by age, illness or disability. Volunteers at Independent Advocacy work with people with learning disabilities, mental health problems and older people.
Becoming a Volunteer for us can be a very rewarding experience and is simple to find out more information on how to join our team of dedicated advocates.
See Join Us for more information.
