How We Can Help
Sometimes people who get support from Medway Council may feel like they are not being listened to or that their opinion does not count.
Well, the good news is – it does!! Especially if the decisions being made are about you!
Here at the Young Lives Foundation we have trained advocates whose job it is to make sure your voice is heard and to help you express your opinion.
An advocate is someone who can speak for you, or help you speak up for yourself.
Our advocates can:
- offer advice;
- support you at meetings with social workers or other professionals;
- help you to make a complaint;
- help you write letters; and
- help you to communicate in a way that suits you.
