Advocacy under The Care Act is a statutory right for those who qualify. It is the local authority who asses who qualifies and they have a duty to refer. Advocates will support those who qualify to engage as fully as possible within any decisions about their care and/ or safeguarding. In this context, the aim of the advocate is to actively support people to participate, assisting the person to engage in the processes as fully as possible.
