our advocacy projects

​Parents Together- funded by the Big Lottery

Offers specialist Advocacy support for Parents with Learning Disabilities who  are going through periods of crisis,  which directly effect their children or family life.  The aim of the project is to empower parents to access support and services to help prevent crises from escalating.

With Child protection and Care proceedings being complex and lengthy, parents with Learning Disabilities often have difficulty understanding processes. Through advocacy this project aims to ensure parents are fully informed, consulted and emotionally supported throughout.

Choices and Changes - funded by The Henry Smith Charity
​
With the recent and ongoing changes to welfare benefits and systems and to care  provision, people with learning disabilities are struggling to engage or understand  the changes that are affecting them.

​The project provides specialist Advocacy support to enable them to navigate these changes and better meet their needs.
