Generic Advocacy

Advocacy Western Isles provides a generic independent advocacy service to people who find themselves in difficult situations and find it challenging to stand up for themselves. Advocacy can help you say what you think is in your best interest and help you have a stronger voice.

Advocacy can help in practical ways, such as:

• accessing information to explore and understand your options and rights
• attend meetings
• help write letters
• understand reports written about you
• help with completing forms; and,
• accessing services to which you are entitled.

Independent Advocacy is person-centred and client-led. Our service is at no cost to our clients.

If you would like to speak to someone about personal situation, please call our office and a member of our team will ask you for information including your contact details, and a brief outline of the issues you would like support with.
