The aim of the Carers Advocacy Service is to ensure Carers’ voices are heard, their rights are protected, and their needs are understood. Advocates work alongside Carers – never speaking for them unless asked – to help them express their views, make informed decisions, and navigate systems that can be complex or overwhelming to some.

Our service provides 1:1 advocacy to Carers who are experiencing issues as a direct result of their caring role.

An advocate can help Carers to:

• Understand their rights and entitlements.
• Provide relevant information and explore choices.
• Communicate effectively with health, social care, and other services.
• Challenge decisions they believe are unfair.
• Feel more confident in speaking up about their own physical and mental wellbeing.
