About us

Who are The Advocacy People?

The Advocacy People believe in a society where;

people feel in control of their lives and are confident to speak up and

people who can’t speak up for themselves have someone in their corner to speak for them.

It is our mission to:

• help anybody that needs independent support to speak up

• deliver quality and innovation in advocacy through our practice

• improve people’s lives individually and collectively through putting their case to policymakers

Our Values

• People are at the heart of what we do.  Anyone can feel powerless and unable to speak up when faced with a difficult situation. Anyone should have access to an advocate

• People matter.  In an equal society, decisions about people’s lives must be made fairly, involving the person as far as possible

• People make the difference. If our staff are happy at work, they will be effective at work

• People should be heard at every level of policy and decision-making. We work hard to make this happen

As the law has changed to include other rights to advocacy, we have changed too. We are experienced and skilled in all the advocacy services that must be provided by law.

​

But 25 years on, advocacy is still only a right for certain people in certain situations.

​

There is a lot more work to do.

Your voice deserves to be heard.
