Welcome To Wirral
Advocacy and Involvement Partnership
Advocacy services provide free advice and representation for people who use social care services or related services. Advocates can speak on behalf of a person who uses services or their carer, or be there to support them speaking for themselves.
Recently advocacy services have also been used to involve people who use our services in planning future developments or changes to services. If you want help with advocacy, contact one of the following:-
