How does advocacy work?
Advocates can offer support by:
Providing you with the information you need to understand your rights, make informed decisions and access the different avenues of support available to you
Helping you to explore your options and develop the skills and confidence you need to navigate services
Empowering you to speak and, in complex cases, speaking with the third party organization on your behalf, in order to advocate for the protection of your rights. This can include attending advocacy focused meetings within the Manchester area.
