"Carers, friends and family are often
informal advocates, but if the right
advocate is supporting them, other
viable options may become apparent"

Client Scenarios...

Paul, 29, had learning difficulties and needed to live in a home with support. Since leaving college he had been happily settled in Worthing, but decided he wanted to move closer to his parents and brother who lived in the Salisbury area.

No one listened to Paul, everyone he talked to (apart from his family) considered him to be settled and safe where he was, and kept telling him how lucky he was to be there. With the help of a volunteer advocate, Paul is now happily settled in a house in Salisbury, regularly attends college and has a part time job, he also sees his family much more and is very happy.
