The poster aims to provide an introduction to the key concepts in advocacy for people coming to advocacy services.

It may also be seen as an entry point to our Standards.

'We believe that the best way to ensure that a service stays
true to its aims and ideals is to tell the client/partner what they
should expect.' - The Leeds Standards

  What is an advocate's role?
- a leaflet designed to clarify the role of an
  advocate.
  It includes information about:
