This Service covers a number of statutory advocacy functions including Independent Mental Capacity Advocacy and Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards Relevant Person's Representatives, Independent Mental Health Advocacy, Independent Care Act Advocacy, Independent NHS Complaints Advocacy and Liberty Protection Safeguards.

See tender documentation for an outline of our expectations to this end.
