Further Description
  • Peaks & Dales Advocacy is an independent organisation based in High Peak offering advocate support for:older people,people with learning difficulties and people with mental health problems  living in the Peak District and North Derbyshire Dales.This includes Tintwistle Our service is free to all users. The organisation, which is a registered charity, aims to ensure that the views of the people who want our help are known, respected and protected. The advocates who work here are all trained and supported. While none of us profess to be experts there is a lot of expertise within the organisation on health, social matters, life and even law if needed.Our one to one advocacy work is done by our volunteers and a small team of paid staff.We do not try to replace families but there are occasions when the people we work with, who we call partners, need someone independent to stand in their corner. That is what an advocate does.If you think we can help you or someone you know,or you would like some more information, either ring or e mail us at padaf@btconnect.com. If you think you might be interested in joining us as a volunteer advocate or in some other voluntary role please contact us for an informal talk. Our existing volunteers come from a variety of backgrounds and ages and all training given is practical and based on experience.While we have supported people in the Glossop area we feel that we are not well known and we are always looking to make people more aware of the service we can provide for them and would be very grateful if you would consider advertising our service on your web site.
