What an Advocate cannot do


Your advocate cannot tell you what to do

Advocacy is all about you making the decisions. Your advocate can get you advice and help from other agencies, but they will never tell you what they think is the right choice. It is your decision.

Your advocate is not a Solicitor

Your advocate will help you to come to your own decisions, they will not try to influence you. They cannot act as a solicitor but they can help you find one or get legal advice.

Your advocate cannot offer an emergency service

Your advocate will respond as quickly as they can to you but they will have other Clients and you may need to wait. An advocate will need to be informed as soon as possible about meetings that you wish them to attend so that they can try to be available.

Your advocate cannot offer a permanent service

We cannot continue to offer a service once the issue has been addressed as far as is possible. There will be other people waiting to use the service. You can contact the service again should another issue arise.
