Anyone can have an Advocate when important decisions are being made about their lives. We offer Independent Advocacy to children and young people in Rochdale.
Advocacy can help you communicate your views and wishes about your care, or if you are unhappy about something. Advocacy is a basic human right and sometimes it is required by law.
An Advocate can help in many ways. They can:
An Advocate is someone who is on your side, but there are some situations they cannot change. However they will always make sure the right people know how you feel.
An Advocate is independent from social services, your local council and children’s services. They work on your behalf and in your best interest. You can trust your Advocate and tell them anything. They won’t tell anyone else unless you ask them to or unless you are in danger.
An Advocate will listen to you and help with any concerns you have whilst living in care. An Advocate’s only concern is making sure that you are happy and safe.
If you would like an Advocate, you can download a referral form right here on this web page. Simply fill it in and email it back to us. You can also ask your social worker to do this on your behalf if you wish.
You can also call our Children and Young Person’s Helpline on 0300 303 4170 for more information, or speak to us online now online via our Live Chat.
