Help fund free independent advocacy

We are raising money to offer free independent advocacy for people with learning disabilities in England.

Clearer Support: Everyone deserves to be heard. Free independent advocacy for people with learning disabilities. An illustration of three adults listening and talking together.

What is independent advocacy?

An advocate listens to you.

They help you understand information.

They help you explain what matters to you and take part in decisions about your life.

They focus on your wishes, rights and choices.

This could include meetings about care, housing or support.

It could also include help to raise a concern or make a complaint.

What would donations pay for?

Donations would pay for professional advocacy time.

This includes listening, preparing for meetings, writing letters and following up concerns.

Donations would also help pay for the costs of providing the service.

People receiving support funded by this appeal would not pay for it.

The support we can offer will depend on the money raised and the time available.
