A manifesto for independent advocacy services in England and Wales

A new manifesto for independent advocacy services has been published, setting out a series of core beliefs relating to advocacy services and a number of expectations in respect to this sector’s relationship with the government.  Newcastle Advocacy Centre was part of a small group that organised a national sector-wide conference held in March 2010 which then developed this manifesto.  Click here to download a copy (PDF, 2 513kb).
