Advocacy

Training


We offer bespoke advocacy training on a wide range of topics. We have trained a wide range of professionals to gain a better insight into the legal duty to refer for advocacy, the eligibility criteria, and more in-depth topics such as how to ensure record keeping is person-centered, identifying objections, and how to make the most of advocacy support.


OVERVIEW

From social workers, healthcare workers, GPs and many more we have helped hundreds of professionals better understand advocacy and when to refer for advocacy to improve quality of care. Having delivered advocacy services for over 25 years, with Advocacy Focus you are in a safe pair of hands. Our goal is to provide advocacy for all, and to support you in bringing person-centered care into your practice.

We offer bespoke training and workforce development, delivered within your health or social care organisation.
