Volunteer Advocates wanted

OXFORDSHIRE Advocacy, which helps people in crisis get their wishes and choices heard, are looking for volunteer Advocates.

WHAT IS ADVOCACY?

Advocacy at its heart is really very simple. It is making sure people get their wishes and choices heard and taken into account on matters of importance to them.

This can be difficult due to comprehension difficulties, health problems etc. However as a volunteer for Oxfordshire Advocacy, through frequent training and support, you can ensure that their voices are heard!

Oxfordshire Advocacy runs three schemes- OSTAS for people who need help with a short term issue, CAPOLD for those with learning disabilities and ADAPT for people with dementia.

Volunteers attend a training course which leads to a formally recognised qualification with the Open College Network. They also receive expenses.

If you are interested in becoming a volunteer advocate or want more information, please contact us.
We would love to hear from you!
