Advocacy
What is an Advocate?
An advocate is a person who can help say if you don’t like something or if you don’t agree with a decision that affects your life. Advocates are there to help you, and to make sure your voice is always heard.
An advocate would ensure your voice is heard on issues that are important to you and to have your views and wishes genuinely considered when decisions are being made about your life.

Children’s Rights Advocacy Services are for young people who are in need of support and guidance. It can often be difficult for young people to have their voices heard, especially during important meetings that can often have a big impact on your future. The Children’s Right Service can support you with any important meetings and help to ensure your best interests are promoted.
