Our Spot-purchased Advocacy Services Offer
Spot purchase is an option when there is no contract to provide a specific piece of work.
It is a single piece of work that can be funded by an individual or by a range of organisations including local authorities, NHS trusts, solicitor firms and voluntary organisations.
We offer a flexible, regional service in The South West/Central area providing both statutory and non-statutory advocacy.
Statutory Advocacy
We welcome spot-purchase arrangements to meet specific statutory advocacy requirements including referrals from Local Authorities for:
Independent Mental Health Advocacy (IMHA)
Care Act Advocacy
Independent Mental Capacity Act (IMCA) including DoLs and RPR
To discuss statutory advocacy referrals please contact our Advocacy Manager, Rachel Hill:
rachelhill@swindonadvocacy.org.uk 01793 542575.
Non-Statutory Advocacy
We accept spot purchase advocacy referrals for vulnerable parents and families going through Child Protection processes.
We offer an ad-hoc, person centred advocacy service where a need for advocacy has been highlighted but there is no other service available to cover the specific situation.
To discuss referrals for a Parent advocate please contact our Children and Families Advocacy Manager, Colette O’Sullivan:
