Due to the emergency legislation that has been introduced in reaction to COVID-19, there has been some confusion about if and how people could access advocacy during this time.
Advocacy QPM
Their resources include a myth-busting fact sheet and an easy read guide to advocacy during COVID-19.
Disability Sheffield
Our advocacy service is still providing regular telephone contact and support for our existing advocacy clients. We are still taking referrals for people who are struggling to access health and social care or through the advocacy hub. However the service we can provide is limited to phone and email contact at this time. Email us at CV19@disabilitysheffield.org.uk or phone 0114 2536750 Mon-Fri 9-5.

Their face to face services are now closed but you can still get support by phoning 0800 0350396 , Mon-Fri 9-5.
