Dorset Advocacy’s independent advocates help to ensure that rights are upheld and that peoples’ views, wishes and needs are heard, respected and acted upon.
- Advocates take action to help people say what they want, secure their rights, represent their interests and get the services they need.
- Advocacy promotes inclusion, equality and social justice.
- We help a wide range of people, including those with learning difficulties, long term health conditions, dementia or memory loss as well as their families, carers and support staff.
